I am the managing editor of MLN, a journal of literary scholarship. I coordinate five annual issues: Italian, Hispanic, German, French, and Comparative Literature.
Previously, I was co-editor of the “Writers on Writers” section at Asymptote where I solicited and edited essays on writers from regions that are underrepresented in the global literary market. I also interviewed authors such as Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Jhumpa Lahiri.
Before devoting myself to full-time editing and writing work, I taught at several universities, including New Jersey Institute of Technology, Moravian University, and Whitman College. I have taught public speaking, technical and scientific writing (including courses for PhD students), first-year writing, literary translation, and a wide range of language and literature classes in Spanish.
Before completing my doctorate, I taught creative writing and English language classes in Ecuador and Argentina.
