Dr. Aeriell Armas
Aeriell Armas, PhD is a Latina speaker and academic content creator with expertise in clinical psychology. In response to a lack of representation in higher education, Aeriell created Grad Life Grind back in 2019 to help other first-generation students from historically marginalized backgrounds apply to and succeed in graduate school. Over the last 5 years, Aeriell has transparently shared her own journey through her doctoral program and provided tips and support to others along the way. Today, she continues to address disparities in higher education through various offerings at Grad Life Grind.

Outside of Grad Life Grind, Aeriell has worked in research and clinical settings with a focus on trauma and addressing mental health disparities for two main populations: the Latine community and women exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV). As part of her dissertation research, she explored the needs and preferences of IPV-exposed Latinas in preparation for the development of the first-ever online IPV intervention specifically tailored for Latina women.
She has spoken at various organizations on a variety of topics, including mental health awareness, intimate partner violence, Latine mental health, graduate student wellness, the hidden curriculum in higher education, and the graduate school application process.
