Hamid A. Abud Russel

Hamid Alberto Abud Russell was born in Campeche, Mexico, in 1992. He earned his BA at El Colegio de México and his MA at Heidelberg University. He recently received his PhD from Heidelberg's Geography Department for his research on Entrenched Mobility in the Yucatán Peninsula.
