Genesis Terrazas Belmares is a graduate student pursuing a Master of Arts in Industrial-Organizational Psychology at the University of Houston-Clear Lake. As a first-generation student and immigrant from Mexico, she is deeply passionate about workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Genesis has focused her academic and professional career on examining the intersectionality of gender, race, and employee experiences. With a background in consulting, project management, research, and data analysis, she has contributed to various nonprofit organizations. As a Poderosa Fellow with Poder Latinx and a Courageous Conversations Fellow, Genesis has actively mobilized Latinx communities and promoted discussions around racial equity.
Her long-term goal is to work in nonprofit management or become an organizational consultant, implementing strategies that foster inclusive and supportive environments for diverse workforces. No matter the path, Genesis is committed to contributing to an organization focused on social justice and helping create a more inclusive society. She is dedicated to helping workplaces adapt to cultural and generational shifts while advocating for first-generation professionals, DACA recipients, and underrepresented groups in the workforce. In her free time, Genesis enjoys reading, volunteering at the animal shelter, spending time with family and friends, and learning how to garden.
