My name is Natalia and I am second-year UCR Political Science student interested in working as a Feminist Horror Scholar. I’m currently a TRIO McNair Scholar where I am working on a research paper regarding feminism, horror, and New French Extremity. I also work at the UCR Women's Resource Center in the Social Justice Committee, and I'm Co-President for UCR's feminist book club, InHerWords.
In my free time, I love going to revival houses and watching films, with some of my favorites being The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, In the Mood for Love, and The Substance. I love reading classics, poetry, and feminist theory. My favorite books are The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde and Written on the Body by Jeanette Winterson.
