Professional Experience
I'm a bilingual freelance writer, content creator, and social media strategist. I offer a unique combination of solid academic background, humor and young adult writing, and effective social media bits. If you need someone to make a Foucault joke geared to a teen audience, I'm probably your best best. If you want me to do it in both Spanish and English, I'm probably your only bet.
