I am an urban anthropologist, humanitarian practitioner and participatory film-maker. I study youth, crime, activism, and migration in Latin America.
I am currently a Research Fellow at the Geneva Graduate Institute and a Visiting Professor at the National University of Colombia. I hold a PhD and a Post-Doc from the University of Oxford. My forthcoming book is an ethnographic exploration of adolescents’ engagement into narco-gangs in Medellín’s urban margins. I am now conducting new research on the interactions between Venezuelan migration and organized crime in Colombia.
Before joining the Graduate Institute, I worked for several years in the humanitarian sector. I am also the author of several participatory films co-produced with young people.
