Background

I graduated as a journalist at Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción (Chile) in 2007. In 2018, I obtained an MA in Film and Screen Studies from Goldsmiths, University of London (with Distinction). I published my dissertation titled 'Underground Media in Chile: Counterpublics in Dictatorship and Democracy' as a peer-reviewed academic article.

I have been a lecturer of Experimental Media at the Universidad Academia de Humanismo Cristiano (Chile), and of Film Aesthetics and Language at Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción (Chile) and Universidad San Sebastián (Chile). I have also worked as a graduate teaching assistant to Visual Cultures and Screen Technologies at Warwick. I am currently an Early Career Fellow at the Institute of advance Studies (IAS) at Warwick.

My research interests primarily revolve around amateur filmmaking and video aesthetics.
