Bio: I am a second-year accelerated master’s candidate in Latin American Studies at Georgetown University and a soon-to-be “Double Hoya,” having completed my undergraduate degree in Government with a minor in Latin American Studies at Georgetown as well. My interest in the region is grounded in my Argentine heritage and strengthened by a deep fascination with the complexity of Latin America. I have worked in Buenos Aires as an International Cooperation intern at CIPPEC, served as an Advocacy Intern at the Latin America Working Group, and conducted field research at Casa Pueblo in Puerto Rico, studying community-based energy alternatives such as solar power. These experiences have shaped my academic and professional focus on environmental justice and sustainability. I hope to continue advancing work at the intersection of advocacy, energy alternatives, and climate finance mechanisms in Latin America and the Caribbean.
