Assistant Professor, Rowan University

My work studies the history of human rights, transnational networks, Latin America, and international relations. In my book manuscript, "Of Light and Struggle” in Uruguay: Contesting the International History of Human Rights, I explore the origins and evolution of human rights discourse in Uruguay, particularly during its transition back to democratic rule. The research addresses issues of  transitional justice, the rise of the transnational human rights movement, and the shifting terrain of human rights in the 1970s and 1980s. 

I have taught courses on human rights, Latin America, social movements, and U.S. foreign policy at Harvard University, New York University, Tufts University, Hunter College, and St. Francis College. I am currently an Assistant Professor of History and International Studies at Rowan University.
