I’m the founding editor of New Mundo, a press based in New York and Buenos Aires focusing on hemispheric American literature. We publish translated and multilingual poetry, as well as work that focuses on the social, historical, economic, and political ties that bind our hemisphere.

    Education

I got an MFA in poetry from Brooklyn College and would suggest you do the same. I got a BA in English and American Studies at Columbia University. You can decide for yourself if that’s something you want to do. I’m searching for the perfect terminal degree.
