Hispanic Studies

I am the mother of Alejandra and Reina Lucia. At the University of Connecticut, I research Latin American and Caribbean poetry about the city/space that has been written in authoritarian regimes and colonial circumstances. I have published three poetry collections: Días de pelea (Days of Struggle) (2023), Bienvenido a Facebook (Welcome to Facebook) (2022), Las tierras rojas (The Red Lands) (2019), Todas las diosas fatigadas (All the Fatigued Goddesses) (2011), and Suelen ser frágiles las muchachas sobre el puente (Girls on the Bridge Tend to be Fragile) (2005). I have seasonal diaries at suelenserfragiles.com. I am the co-founder of Justicia11J.
