Hello everyone! My name is Isabella Garcia Bernstein (she/they), and I am going into my second year at Barnard College. I study Spanish and Latin American Cultures and Archaeology. My research project involves examining the allegorical play Loa for the Divine Narcissus by Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz to situate her views of scholarship and education in the larger educational structure of colonial Mexico. With my research, I hope to gain an understanding of educational disenfranchisement in the country as a result of Spanish Catholic colonization. I look forward to connecting with you all.

I'm an undergraduate student intending to major in Medical Anthropology and interested in public/global health, reproductive health, and integrative medicine with a focus in Ayurveda. My research project focuses on menstrual health practices and education in India (Andhra Pradesh and Telangana).
