#Introduction (again, because I got confused)...Hello all :) I’m an academic and writer interested in the politics of identity, stigma, and brutality during war and other episodes of violence.

My current work looks at violence against LGBT people during the Colombian Civil War as well as the experiences of LGBT people during displacement.
