Bilingual fluency (English - Spanish) as a writer, scholar, translator and instructor. I’m the author of two books of poetry: la distancia es siempre la misma (2006) & el cerrajero (2012); one book of translation, Album of Fences (2018); and creator of the AMLT project (http://amlt-elcomienzo.blogspot.pe), an exploration of hypertext literature and collective authorship. My third book, titled open pit, is forthcoming from AUB in 2021. Areas of focus include: Creative Writing, Poetry/Poetics, Cross-Genre Literature, Literary Translation, US-Latinx Literature, Critical University Studies and Critical Race and Ethnic Studies. I hold an MFA in Writing from UCSD and I’m currently a PhD Candidate in Literature at UCSC with an Designated Emphasis in Critical Race and Ethnic Studies.
