About      Writing  

My poems and translations from the Portuguese can be found in Granta, New England Review, AGNI, Pleiades, and elsewhere. I’ve edited literary magazines, academic journals, arts and culture publications, and community databases for nearly a decade. As a freelance editor and translator, I’ve worked on scholarly articles, exhibition catalogs, longform journalism, science fiction and fantasy, personal essays, graduate school applications, grant proposals, and more. Regardless of the genre, my approach to editing and translation is dynamic, reflexive, and collaborative.

I hold a PhD in sociocultural anthropology with a Designated Emphasis (minor) in Global Metropolitan Studies from UC Berkeley and an MFA in creative writing from Louisiana State University.

I’m currently available to take on translation and editorial projects. If you want to collaborate or request a sample, feel free to reach out via email or Instagram.
