I am from Mallorca, a stunning island located in the Mediterranean Sea, which is part of Spain. I received my B.A. in Foreign Languages (2020) and M.A. in Hispanic Literature (2022) at New Mexico State University, where I also played college tennis. My research interests focus on the violence against the female body within transatlantic discourses, especially from the fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries. I am particularly interested in the intersections of colonial encounters, gender, and representation, and in how the female body is (re)imagined, regulated, and politicized in early modern textual and visual archives. Additional areas of interest include pre-feminist and feminist theory, utopia and non-utopia, visual studies, psychoanalysis, biopolitics, and subaltern studies. Outside of academia, I am passionate about sports and the outdoors. I love playing tennis, running, cycling, swimming, hiking—simply put, anything that allows me to be active and outside. I also enjoy visiting art and natural history museums, spending time in libraries, and being with my family and friends.
