Mika C. Leck is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Multicultural Education in the School of Teacher Preparation, Administration, and Leadership at New Mexico State University. She has taught English language courses at universities in Japan and South Korea. Her research interest includes promoting the inclusion of diverse experiences in education through personal storytelling. She believes that looking at the self furthers the dialogue of topics in Multicultural Education as well as social and cultural issues that are relevant in our lives today. Dr. Leck encourages personal storytelling in research and classrooms, for it acts as a platform for silenced, ignored, minoritized, oppressed, invisible, and erased voices and experiences to be accessed and heard.
