Graduate Student
Latin America
I am a Ph.D. student specializing in modern Latin American history. My current project explores Japanese migration to Chile and Peru in the early twentieth century. I am broadly interested in the transnational history of Latin America, particularly the Andes, as part of the Pacific world.
Soy un estudiante en el programa de Doctorado de la historia de América Latina en los siglos XIX y XX. Mis investigaciones se tratan de los países Andinos en la costa pacífica de América del Sur. En éste momento estoy trabajando en un proyecto sobre la historia de la inmigración Japonesa en Chile y Peru. Éste proyecto es acerca de la sociedad en Chile y Peru, inmigración, y el contexto diplomático de América del Sur en el Pacífico.
