Jacqueline Ly is a Ph.D.​student in Latin American History. Her research concentrates on the Bay of Honduras in the eighteenth-century to explore how British loggers, their allies, and their foes shaped the British and Spanish Empires from the periphery. She is particularly interested in centering the Mexican Caribbean as a region of study and an important interlocutor between Atlantic World and Caribbean histories. Prior to attending Yale, Jacqueline received a B.A. from the Gallatin School of Individualized Study at New York University and a M.A./M.Sc. from the dual-degree program at Columbia University and the London School of Economics.
