Alfredo's dissertation is a mixed method, qualitative study on neighborhood change in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Boyle Heights. Drawing from archival, ethnographic, and interview data, Alfredo advances a theory of gentrification as a racial project by examining the ways public debates and discussions of gentrification restructures the barrio's colorline. Alfredo also holds a Masters in Urban Planning and a Bachelors in International Development Studies from the University of California Los Angeles.
