Myrriah Gomez named as SHRI director

Myrriah Gómez has been named as the director of the Southwest Hispanic Research Institute after serving as interim director since last fall. 

Gómez, an associate professor in the Honors College at UNM, is already planning SHRI’s first Research Fiesta for the fall semester.

“I am excited for SHRI to host our inaugural Research Fiesta this fall. SHRI researchers will be able to share their work with the UNM community and our community partners,” she said.

“This will be an open invitation for community organizations and individuals looking to partner with UNM faculty on projects to meet some of our incredible faculty.”
