My doctoral research focuses on the 20th century Chilean writer María Luisa Bombal. Reading against the critical tendency to analyse her writing from only a feminist and Latin American perspective, my project reassesses Bombal’s oeuvre by situating it in a much broader, transatlantic world of ideas. Considering her work alongside cinematic, literary, scientific and philosophical approaches to temporality within modernism, I seek to establish Bombal as an invaluable voice in global modernism. 

My DPhil project is generously funded by the Wolfson Postgraduate Scholarship in the Humanities and Linacre College’s Mary Blaschko Graduate Scholarship.

In 2022-2023 I completed an MSt in Modern Languages at Oxford, funded by the Lidl Graduate Scholarship. My thesis, ‘Desdoblamiento, dichotomy, division: gendered conflicts of the self in Miguel de Unamuno’s Nada menos que todo un hombre and El otro’, was awarded the Faculty prize for the best MSt dissertation on a topic in Spanish literature. I studied a BA in Spanish and German at UCL (2018-2021). I have also worked on the AHRC-funded 'Kafka's Transformative Communities' project and in the MML Faculty.

My main research interests include 20th century Spanish and Latin American literature, modernism, and gender studies.
