My name is Jessie A. Bustillos Morales and I am a Senior Lecturer in the Education Division at London South Bank University (LSBU). I hold a Ph.D. in Education from University College London (UCL). I am an educator, researcher and writer from Venezuela. I have worked in academia for over over thirteen years across several institutions in the UK. With an interdisciplinary background including sociology, philosophy and education, I am interested in exploring educational and social inequalities through innovative theoretical frameworks and creative methodologies, relevant to everyday educational practice.

My scholarship operates in the intersections of youth studies, methodology, philosophy and critical theory/pedagogy. I have published in various educational journals and I have co-authored and co-edited several books published by Routledge, including Understanding Education and Economics: Key Debates and Critical Perspectives (2020), Questioning Gender Politics: Contextualising Educational Disparities in Uncertain Times (2024) and Towards Posthumanism in Education Theoretical Entanglements and Pedagogical Mappings (2024).

I have also published several book chapters and presented at national and international conferences. I have worked as an external examiner for various educational and social sciences courses in the UK Higher Education sector. I am currently supervising doctoral students exploring a variety of issues in education.

As a researcher, I have a passion for working with educators and young people and have explored how co-creation and collaboration can widen the affordances of qualitative research.
