About
My research focuses on twentieth and twenty-first centuries Latin American literature, cinema, and performance, with an emphasis on Colombian contemporary cultural production. My dissertation, tentatively titled Violence Reframed: History, Representation, and the Reinvention of Conflict in Contemporary Colombia, explores cultural narratives that elicit alternative approaches to the history of violence in Colombia from the1980s onwards. Some of the courses I have taught include Cartographies of Violence in Latin American Cinema, Realism and Melodrama in Hispanic Cinema, and Narratives of Migration in Contemporary Latin America. I currently work as the Editorial Assistant of Revista de Estudios Colombianos, which is the journal of the Colombian Studies Association.
