My research focuses on the study of transoceanic connections between Europe, Asia, and the Americas. In particular, I study the influence that Indigenous visual and cultural literacies have on the production of Spanish histories, literature, illustrations, and maps. I also work with the material hybridity that was embedded and developed in the cultural and scientific centers created by European missionaries in the navigational routes between Manila, Mexico City, and along the Iberian and Ming Empires. My research has appeared in journals such as Hispanic Review and Hispanófila.
