Early life and education[edit]

Vicenti Carpio was born in 1965 and is a member of the Jicarilla Apache Nation and also has Laguna and Isleta Pueblo. At the age of four, she left her reservation and spent her adolescent years living in Denver, Colorado, before moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Vicenti Carpio received her Bachelor’s in Education and Secondary-Social Studies from the  University of New Mexico in 1992. In 1995, she completed her Master’s in U.S. History at Arizona State University (ASU), followed by a Ph.D. in U.S. History from Arizona State University in 2001.

Career[edit]

Her academic career began at Carleton College where she served as part of the Pre-doctoral Fellowship in American Studies from September, 1999 - June, 2000. For the next decade (2001-2011), she was an Assistant Professor for the American Indian Studies Program at Arizona State University, Tempe. In 2011, she became an Associate Professor in the American Indian Studies Program at Arizona State University, Tempe and currently remains in this position.[3] In 2016, she also became the Director of Graduate Studies for the American Indian Studies Program. At Arizona State University, Vicenti Carpio teaches Introduction to American Indian Studies, Issues in Urban Indian Country, American Indian Studies Research Methods, Actualizing Decolonization and Concepts of Power and Indigeneity. She advocates for urban Indian cultural revitalization and tribal sovereignty through her scholarship and service.[4]

In 2011, Vicenti Carpio and Dr. Leong received a grant from the Harry S. Truman Library Institute and the Institute for Humanities Research through Arizona State University. From 2011-2012, Leong and Vicenti Carpio conducted research titled “Arizona Intersection: The Shared Histories of American Indian and Japanese American during World War II”.[5]

Vicenti Carpio is the author of Indigenous Albuquerque, published by Texas Tech University Press in 2011. The book explored the relationship between the various Indigenous peoples and the City of Albuquerque - with a particular focus on the extent to which the needs of Latino and Anglo communities have bee prioritised over Indigenous people's needs.[6] The book documents the extent to which community access to healthcare and social supports have been inconsistent from federal and local governments.[7] Vicenti Carpio wrote the book to challenge the prevailing academic views on Indigenous peoples in Albuquerque.[8]

She is the co-editor of the “Critical Issues in Indigenous Studies” book series alongside Jeffrey Shepherd (UTEP) published by the University of Arizona Press,[9] and was also a contributor to The National Museum of the American Indian: Critical Conversations, edited by Amy Lonetree and Amanda J. Cobb.[10]

In 2016, she was invited to be a panelist at a seminar for thesis students in American studies on Research and Method in American Studies at Sophia University in Tokyo, Japan. She was also invited to participate in a symposium titled Intersecting the Global with the Local: Activism and American Minorities at Kyoto University in Japan.

In 2021, she was a keynote speaker at the Spatial Justice as a Driver of Health in the Context of Societal Emergencies: A Workshop hosted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. She was nominated for but did not receive the Arizona State University Teaching Award (2009),[11] Centennial Professor Award,[12] and the University’s Last Lecture Series - Co-Curricular Programs Award.
