I am a writer and experiential educator interested in place-based practices. POST BOND is my current project of historical research and documentary poetry on airport property in El Paso, TX. I lead workshops on counter-mapping in poetry and have formerly taught at El Paso Community College and outdoor expedition-based schools.

I publish literary translations, essays and poetry. Architectures of Disappearance, my Commentary in Jacket2, features poetic work that responds to geographic and linguistic architectures of movement constriction. I am part of the leadership of Cardboard House Press and des/centro de poesía.

In 2024-25, I am a Harvard Mellon Urban Initiative Doctoral Fellow and based in Providence, RI.
