I am an associate professor in Latin American Studies at the University of British Columbia. Previously, I worked in the UK (where I am from), and I have a Ph.D from Duke University.

I first came here when I realized that there was a Wikipedia article on Posthegemony. And then I stayed.

On Wikipedia I am mostly interested in improving the coverage of Latin American literature and culture. I'm not terribly active these days, though this varies.
