I am the first British- Latinx poet to be selected for the Complete Works Poetry, the national programme whose fellows have included Sarah Howe, Mona Arshi, Kayo Chingonyi and Warsan Shire among others.

I was the recipient of the Bart Wolffe Poetry Prize Award 2018 and the Keats-Shelley Prize 2019. 

My debut collection in English 'Ballad of a Happy Immigrant' (Chatto & Windus) was selected by the Poetry Book Society as the Wild Card Choice for Summer 2021. My poetry was included in many anthologies, including '10: Poets of the New Generation' (Bloodaxe), 'Un Nuevo Sol: British Latinx Writers' (flipped eye) and 'The Best New British and Irish Poets Anthology 2019-2020' (BlackSpring Press).

I have also been published in POETRY, PN Review, The Poetry Review, Modern Poetry in Translation, The Manchester Review, The White Review, Ambit, The Morning Star, The Rialto, Magma Poetry, Letras Libres, Prism International and elsewhere.

I have given readings at a range of venues including Southbank Centre, the National Poetry Library, The Roundhouse, The Albany, The Bluecoat, The Poetry Cafe, Aldeburgh Festival, Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (RADA), Unison, SOAS, Rich Mix and Lewisham Library.

Since 2021 I am a mentor on the Ledbury Poetry Critics scheme as part of the Centre for New and International Writing, University of Liverpool.
