About: Dexter Hough-Snee

A one-time production laminator, Dexter has spent the last decade chasing waves between labor, teaching, and research positions in California and Latin America. Completing his PhD at the University of California, Berkeley, Dexter focuses his scholarship on cultural studies of colonial Latin America and, to the dismay of his colleagues, writing about surfing as mediated discourse and its relationship to colonialism and globalization. Views are his own and do not reflect the positions of his employer institutions, past or present.
