I am a curator and researcher with an interest in Latin American art, in particular art produced by Latina/e women, femmes and LGBTQIA+ artists. My current curatorial practice focuses on the intersections of colonization, syncretism, climate change, land stewardship, and the ways that cultures evolve and adapt to increased globalization and a changing planet on the micro and macro level. As a queer Latina, I am also interested in the role that women and marginalized people often have to play in shaping and creating culture, passing it down within their communities, and their role in ameliorating the harm done by those from majority identities.

My curatorial work explores the ways that colonization and climate change’s many ripple effects have come to impact artists and how these effects are explored or omitted in their art. I’m also intrigued by the socio-cultural relationship between the United States and other nations, including the ways that popular culture has come to shape aspects of culture outside of the United States, and how that influence is perceived, as a result of increased connectivity through online channels.

I have worked with fine arts pop ups, and contemporary artists directly, to develop temporary exhibitions in the United States and Ireland. Additionally, I have curated for Qatar Museums, where I curated objects and gallery content relating to sports in Mesoamerica and the Olympic Games, and developed athlete profiles for the Qatar Olympic and Sport Museum’s biographical gallery.

I received a masters in Museum Studies from University College Cork, with first class honours, for my dissertation exploring the role of place and identity as they relate to museum visitors from Latin American diaspora communities visiting American institutions.
