Her first book Latina Teachers: Creating Careers and Guarding Culture won the 2018 Outstanding Contribution to Scholarship Book Award from the Race, Gender, and Class Section of the American Sociological Association. Her research has been published in several venues, such as Gender & Society, Sex Roles, Gender, Work and Organization, and The Journal for STEM Education Research. Her new book-length project is based on interviews with over seventy Latina/o/e physicians in California and is titled The Weight of the White Coat: Latinos Navigating American Medicine (UC Press, 2025).

Vega is Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of California, Irvine. Her primary line of research examines how the intersection of legal and policy mandates, bureaucratic culture, and political processes shapes immigration enforcement. Her recently published book, Bordering on Indifference: How Immigration Agents Negotiate Race and Morality (Princeton University Press) draws on fieldwork with Border Patrol Agents and Immigration and Customs Enforcement Officers to show how bureaucratic indifference is produced and maintained on the frontlines of immigration control. As a Hellman Fellow, Dr. Vega is conducting a new research project mapping the experiences of upward mobility across demographic groups in Southern California, contributing to broader understanding of social stratification and opportunity structures in the region. You can find Dr. Vega’s research in well-regarded outlets, including Theoretical Criminology, Social Problems, The Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies, and American Behavioral Scientist, among other venues. Dr. Vega teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on race/ethnicity and immigration, and graduate courses on qualitative data analysis.
