Currently working on my PhD at the School of Communication in the University of Miami. My research areas include intercultural new media, intercultural argumentation and social movements in Latin America. I'm also an experienced debate coach with strengths in coaching nationally competitive policy debate, British Parliamentary and NPDA formats at the collegiate level. Most of my days are spent working on research and coaching debate at tournaments across the country (and sometimes world). I'm looking forward to making an impact in the field of communication and sparking social change with my research interests.
