About Me
I am an anthropologist and PhD researcher at the University of Oxford, where my research focuses on Venezuelan migration, border dynamics, and mobility patterns in Colombia. I study how people here build cross-border livelihoods by traveling back and forth between Colombia and Venezuela, constantly comparing what each respective government offers and paving a path forward for themselves in the midst of economic crisis. My previous research, which I am currently writing for publication, focused on international development and humanitarian governance, specifically the logics, ethics, and histories that shape humanitarian intervention.
While currently based in academia, I continue my work in humanitarian, development, and governmental spaces. I have previously worked with the German Development Institute, the World Economic Forum, Yale University, the Florida Department of Health, the World Health Organization, Aetna-CVS Health, the Microbiome Coalition, the diaTribe Foundation, and other groups across five continents. Today, I advise projects at HealthTrends.AI, Generation Next-Voice of Youth, Bibliobicicleta Foundation, and Panas Sin Límites and serve as a country-level expert for Colombian and Venezuelan asylum cases in U.S. Immigration Court.
For this work, I was awarded the Future Global Leaders Fellowship, Jack Kent Cooke International Award, Gateway Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Fellowship, John F. Kennedy Memorial Award, Forbes Under 30 Award, Brasenose Senior Hulme Fellowship, and over $350,000 in research grants. I have published pieces with Medicine Anthropology Theory, Fieldsights, HuffPost, Common Dreams, Global Health NOW, Guajira News, Daytona Beach News-Journal, and Cornell Daily Sun and contributed to pieces in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The New Humanitarian, and ABC Action News.
