I am an Assistant Professor of Modern and Contemporary Latin American Literature and Cultural Studies at Georgetown University. I hold a BA and MA in Spanish from the University of New Hampshire, and an MA and PhD in Hispanic Studies from Brown University. From 2016 to 2017, I completed a Princeton in Latin America Fellowship in Quito, Ecuador working with the Centro Integral de Niñez y Adolescencia (CENIT).

My research and teaching focus on contemporary literature, film, and cultural production of the Americas that address questions of race, indigeneity, political violence, and migration. I have published articles in MLN, Hispanic Review, Revista de Estudios Hispánicos, and the Arizona Journal of Hispanic Cultural Studies, among other venues. My first book, Memory Labor: Indigeneity, Literature, and the Unequal Work of Remembering, is under contract with the University of Pittsburgh Press (“Illuminations: Cultural Formations of the Americas” series).
