My research revolves around the representation of Asian communities in Latin American cultural productions such as literature and films. Currently, I am working on two projects. The first one is an article-length project that deals with the semi-authentic film portrayals of the Chinese community in a China-Japan-Brazil multi-national production. At the same time, I am also writing my dissertation, which centers on the literary representation of Chinatown in Mexican, Peruvian, Argentinian, and Puerto Rican narratives. In the future, I plan on expanding the scope of my study by incorporating Japan and the Philippines into my research.
