Profile

I am a doctoral student at the University of Oregon. My primary teaching field is Modern Latin America, within which I specialize in twentieth-century Mexico. My research interests include the history of intellectuals, the Mexican Revolution, state formation in the 1920s and 1930s, public education and the production of history textbooks, Marxism, and Mexico’s political and cultural exchange with Soviet Russia. I am currently working on a dissertation that looks at the relationship between leftist intellectuals and the postrevolutionary Mexican state.
