My main scholarly interests center on coloniality and cultural exchanges between Spain and the Americas in the Early Modern period. My research is interdisciplinary and concerns the intersection of Historic Preservation, Cultural Studies, Social Theory, and the History of Education in Spain and Latin America. In my dissertation, I explored the concept of the City of God in Alcalá de Henares (Spain), and Mexico City (Mexico) from colonial times to the present day. At present, I am focusing on the influence of humanism on multilingual book production on both sides of the Atlantic. I am also interested in inclusive pedagogies, course design, and second language acquisition.
