.

I am a writer and educator with twenty-five years of experience teaching at the university level, including all levels of Spanish as a second language, introductory courses to Spanish and Latin American cultures, and classes on cinema, literature, and Latin American and Iberian studies. I hold a Ph.D. from Harvard University, where I was an instructor for nine years. I have also taught at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Connecticut College, and Manhattan College, where I am currently an Associate Professor.

My writing focuses on modern and contemporary culture, media, technology, and the sacred. I have published one book and more than a dozen academic essays on these topics and, in the early 2000s, I wrote about Internet culture for Spanish mainstream venues and translated Lawrence Lessig’s book Free Culture [Por una cultura libre, Traficantes de sueƱos].

I believe that scholarship is a fundamentally collaborative endeavor, which is why in the last few years my career has been devoted to working with colleagues to put together collections of essays that show how important it is to create an intellectual dialogue among voices from a wide range of backgrounds. The experience of working with coeditors and contributors has taught me many valuable lessons about how to design and bring to completion research projects that resonate with scholars and general readers and publishers find attractive and worthy of publication.
