this fall, i’ll begin a master in design studies at harvard gsd, where i’m excited to explore how design can help us analyze and represent conflict, and respond through participatory interventions.
my research will focus on narco-territorial dynamics in mexico, examining how spatial practices can make systemic violence visible while opening space for healing. i intend to investigate anticipatory, restorative, and participatory design strategies that foster resilience, disrupt cycles of harm, and create structures of possibility.
ultimately, my goal is to develop methodologies, programs, and policy frameworks that empower communities and help reimagine urban futures in conflict-affected regions.
