I have developed and taught undergraduate and graduate courses on the international politics of the Global South, international security, and foreign policy. My syllabi promote dialogues between Western, non-Western, mainstream, and critical scholars. I complement this diverse academic exchange with in-class debates, policy simulations, and assignments in different writing genres common in policymaking and academic circles. I received the Excellence in Teaching Award in 2019 from the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences at Johns Hopkins University in recognition of my commitment and excellence in teaching and thanks to my students’ nomination and support. I am prepared to teach undergraduate and graduate courses on international relations, including introduction to international relations, international security, the Global South, Latin American international politics, international law and organizations, and arms control and the use of force.
