I am a PhD candidate in Communication and Science Studies programs at the University of California San Diego. I am also a member of the Feminist Labor Lab run by professor Lilly Irani. I hold an MA in Design Studies from Parsons the School of Design and a BA in Humanities and Philosophy by PUCP.
My previous work dealt with the critical aspects of design and its possibilities for fostering political agency.
I am interested in the social relations and infrastructures that shape and are shaped by emergent commons produced by technoscience. My dissertation research examines how engineers produce open hardware as an instance of technological sovereignty in Mexico and the consequences of these constructions for tech manufacturing workers in Mexico.
In general, my work explores the intersection between critical geography, design, labor, and feminist/ decolonial STS.
I also have two cats, one named Stela and another named Sergeant Pepper.
