I am a historian of modern Latin America with an emphasis on Mexico. Overall, my research interests lie in the struggles and outcomes of the politicization of private life. My current book manuscript, Revolution in the Sheets: Sexuality and Tolerance in the Mexican Left, focuses on the issues of homophobia, heterosexism, and hostility towards sexual politics in Mexico's leftist parties and organizations.
