About
I earned my Ph.D. in Spanish Literature and Cultural Studies from Georgetown University, focusing on modern Latin American literature, particularly 20th-century writers like Felisberto Hernández and César Aira. In addition to academic writing, I have written and published several short stories. In 2020, I completed an MFA in Spanish Creative Writing at the University of Iowa, where I finished my first novel.
I particularly enjoy teaching courses in Latin American Film and Writing in Spanish. Engaging with students at all levels of language instruction is a passion of mine, as I find great value in the interactive learning process.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I worked as a music journalist during my undergraduate years and continue to stay updated with current music trends. For the record, I still argue that The Velvet Underground surpasses The Beatles.
