I am a British Latinx poet writing in Spanish and English, whose work explores queer identity, migration, gender and cultural translation through lyric intensity and visual imagination.

Born in Buenos Aires and based in the UK for over two decades, I have developed distinct poetic voices in each language, shaped by diasporic experience and the politics of belonging.

My books include Southernmost: Sonnets (Chatto & Windus, 2025), shortlisted for the Forward Prizes for Poetry and named Book of the Year by The Guardian and The Week, and Ballad of a Happy Immigrant (Chatto & Windus, 2021), a Poetry Book Society Wild Card Choice and one of The Guardian’s top five poetry books of the year.

I have also published two widely acclaimed poetry collections in Spanish and have been featured in numerous international anthologies.

I was the first British Latinx poet selected for The Complete Works Poetry, the national programme whose alumni include Warsan Shire, Kayo Chingonyi and Mona Arshi. My writing has received a PEN Award, the Keats–Shelley Prize, the Bart Wolffe Poetry Prize, and support from The Society of Authors’ Foundation and the K. Blundell Trust.

I am the editor and lead translator of Hemisferio Cuir: An Anthology of Young Queer Poetry, and have introduced English-language readers to major Latin American voices including Diana Bellessi, Jorge Eduardo Eielson and José Watanabe.

Alongside my writing, I have co-directed Invisible Presence, an Arts Council England programme supporting emerging British Latinx writers, served on the advisory board of the Poetry Translation Centre, and worked extensively as a mentor, tutor and workshop leader.

My work has been commissioned by organisations including Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, the National Poetry Library, and major UK festivals, and I have read widely across the UK and internationally.
