Biography : 

I was trained and guided as a historian at the Universidad de los Andes in Bogota by a group of extraordinary women historians from whom I learned that the commitment to the past is also a political responsibility to our present, to imagine a different future. We must continue collectively imagining other ways of doing, practicing, and sharing history.
