I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Latin American and Latino Studies (LALS) at the University of California, Santa Cruz. During the 2020-2021 academic year, I will be on leave from UCSC and in residence at the Kellogg Institute for International Studies.
My research and teaching address the historical construction of borders and the movement of people across them. I also analyze the ways that historical documents are produced and curated, and how those processes structure historical memory and geographic imaginaries. I tend to focus broadly on the Americas and the Atlantic World, but I have particular interest in southeastern South America (Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Southern Brazil).
