Assistant Professor of Spanish and Portuguese

I am an assistant professor of Spanish and Portuguese at Dartmouth College, specializing in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Latin American literatures and cultures, with a focus on the Hispanophone Caribbean and Brazil. My research explores the intersections of literary criticism, visual culture, and philosophy, with attention to the interplay between transatlantic slavery, Marxism, and form. I hold a B.A. from Smith College Cum laude and a Ph.D. in Spanish and Portuguese from Princeton University, where I graduated in 2022 with a scholarly excellence award. I studied literary theory with Nobel laureates José Saramago and Gabriel García Márquez.
