I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a bilingual traveler / writer / poet / performer / designer / organizer originally from the Arizona / Mexico border. I am overly fond of forward slashes. Check out DIRTYVERBS.COM , my 'real' website, for more.

I've performed poetry from Los Angeles to Paris, New York to Mexico City. In Cuernavaca, where I've lived for over a year, I organize and host the CuernaSlam de Poesía , make videoetry chaos with the group Verbobala Spoken Video and teach Hispanic American Literature.
