Writing Projects
This is where I write for myself.
These projects are where I explore creativity, culture, and what it means to pay close attention.
They're slower than the rest of the internet on purpose. They ask questions more than they answer them. They follow a thread until it goes somewhere interesting.
Each one has its own rhythm. All of them are rooted in the belief that slowing down is its own kind of practice.
Consider This A Note
Consider This a Note is a Substack for anyone doing creative work in the middle of a full, complicated life.
These are reflective essays that are shaped by editorial thinking, lived experience, and a restless curiosity that doesn't always resolve neatly. They explore what it means to build meaningful work without losing yourself in it, how creativity survives ambition, doubt, and the quiet weight of simply keeping going.
Some pieces dig into craft and voice. Others sit with the harder questions like who gets to call themselves creative, what we owe our work, and what our work owes us back.
There are no quick fixes here. Just honest notes, written with care, for people who want to think more clearly about how they create and why it matters.

Awesome Latinas:
The Substack
"The Book of Awesome Latinas" was a celebration, but some stories don't fit neatly between two covers. The Substack is where Ashley and I keep that momentum going.
We write together here, exploring the stories, histories, and legacies of Latina and Latine femmes that the book introduced but couldn't fully hold.
It's part archive, part ongoing conversation, part love letter to the women who built the way forward for the rest of us.
If the book brought you into this world, this is where we keep building it together.

The Bocadito
Food, at its core, is about memory, labor, and occasionally, it’s the only thing worth fighting about.
I spent my early years in journalism covering food, but my obsession began way earlier. This newsletter is a small collection of my “little bites.”
This space is just a place I can write down my observations that linger long after the plates are cleared. I’m not here to give you stars or rankings.
I’m here to tell you why a single dish reveals more about a city than a guidebook, or why the person who brings the food is often the one who notices everything.
Coming in 2026. Subscribe here.
