After finishing preparatoria [high school], she pursued her undergraduate studies in Special Education and later obtained graduate degrees in Deaf Education and Multicultural Special Education. Her research focuses on the education of culturally and linguistically diverse populations with and without disabilities, collaboration among school professionals, and the involvement of Latinx parents in their children's education.
In addition to teaching and supervising student teachers and interns in general, bilingual, and special education settings, Delgado worked at the Texas School for the Blind and Texas School for the Deaf. She provided early intervention for children with multiple disabilities, worked as parent and community educator, and taught English as a second language classes.
