She is currently extending her work to the US-Mexico Border region where she plans to use geographic methods to analyze the extent and consequences of waste dumping in cities along the border. She is currently co- teaching the Individuals and Societies 102 class on Modern Latin America and looks forward to developing classes on Urban Latin America at both the graduate and undergraduate levels.
