Research Topic: Amerindian perception and becoming in contexts of conversion to Protestant Christianity

I hold a MSc in Comparative Politics and Conflict Studies from the LSE and a MPhil in Social Anthropology from Oxford University. I have broad experience working with Indigenous groups in the Venezuelan Amazon, particularly among Carib-language speaking peoples – Ye’kwana and E’ñepa. I have done long-term ethnographic work among evangelical indigenous groups in particular. This has involved long periods of participant observation, living and travelling in the Amazon with indigenous churches and communities, as well as linguistic and translation work with indigenous leaders and elders.
