MA Student
Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, Dilyan attended the University of North Texas for his undergrad, earning a BA in Media Studies. He focused mainly on Screenwriting and Cultural Studies until one semester when he took Queer Cinema and was captivated by studying queer media. Moving forward, he hopes to study the intersections of Queer and Mexican American culture while also understanding their importance in documenting/influencing recent sociopolitical changes.
In his free time, Dilyan enjoys watching movies (of course), bothering his cat, and cooking food from all over the world. His goal is to one day travel the world to see international cinema and cuisine.
Area of Focus: Queer media, Latin American studies, Mexican American media
