Professor Sandra Mendiola was born and raised in Puebla, Mexico where she received her B.A. from the Universidad de las Américas. After a year teaching Spanish in upstate New York, she went to Canada where she earned her M.A. from the University of Toronto. She completed her Ph.D. at Rutgers University in 2008.
Sandra teaches upper-division courses on colonial and modern Latin American history, women and gender in Latin America, and world history surveys. She is currently working on a book about the history of street vendors in twentieth-century Mexico.
Outside the classroom, Sandra enjoys spending time with her husband Chad and her daughter Lucía. In Mexico, they enjoy visiting the port of Veracruz and watching masked Mexican wrestlers in action in her native Puebla. Her favorite wrestler is Místico.
