Research

I am an historian of early modern Spain, Italy, and the Mediterranean world, and am a second field medievalist. Much of my archival research has taken place in Granada and Madrid, and other Spanish archives. I am working on a monograph on the Granada Venegas family, which is the revision of my 2015 UC Berkeley dissertation. Below is a picture from when I participated in the NEH Summer Seminar, “The Alhambra and Spain’s Islamic Past,” in 2015.
