She was born in Ireland to an Irish father and a Spanish mother and spent her childhood in the open greenery of County Mayo. As a little girl, she expressed an interest in her mother\u2019s native language and upon request, was given Spanish language-learning books so that she could begin teaching herself the language. At ten years of age, her family, including her parents and her older brother, emigrated from Ireland to the United States. From there, she spent her teen years immersed in the arts, whether it was dancing, drawing portraits, playing the piano, acting in plays or writing stories in her notebooks. Because of her Catholic schooling, she developed a social awareness for the psychological effects of this particular religion and often writes poetry and fiction about these experiences from the perspective of her adult secular life. In the future, she will be continuing her studies to eventually complete a PhD in neuroscience so that she can continue to enrich her life with both the answers that science gives and the stage to express these answers that art provides.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/labelmelatin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Fabiola-Bagula-Woke-Light.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Woke Light<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>By Fabiola Bagula<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Fabiola Bagula<\/strong> was born and raised in San Diego, CA and Tijuana, MX.\u00a0 Most of her academic life was spent in San Diego, but she was also one of the many students who crossed the border daily.\u00a0 She received her BA in English and Spanish Lit from UCSD and her Masters degree and Ph.D. from USD.\u00a0 She has been a teacher, vice principal, principal, university adjunct faculty, assistant superintendent and is currently an executive leadership coach.
