Guatemalan Social Anthropologist with more than a decade of experience working for Guatemalan non-profits, the Guatemalan government, and different research projects, particularly on human rights violations during the Guatemalan civil war and prevention of community violence. She has been an Associate Professor at the School of History of Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala since 2018 (previously Assistant Professor since 2016), in charge of the Anthropology Fieldwork and Internship Program (Practicums). Her research interests include digital ethnography, transitional justice, intercultural health practices, and Guatemalan migration to the US. During her master’s thesis in Applied Anthropology as a Fulbright-Laspau scholar, she worked with Maya migrant women about how they experience pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum in Oregon from a structural competency approach. Currently, she is doing her doctoral research in Cultural Anthropology at the University of Oregon about how Guatemalan Maya migrants in diaspora build their intersectional identities and reconstruct community in Oregon as an ongoing process of construction of collective memory.
