​I'm a Spanish/English literary translator specializing in fiction, gender, art and immigration. My work has been published by the New Press, Columbia University Press, Amazon Crossing and Editorial RM, and in 2020 I received a PEN/Heim Grant and an English PEN Award for my translation of Lectura fácil by Cristina Morales (forthcoming as Easy Reading from Jonathan Cape/Random House in January 2022). I have an M.A. in Hispanic Language and Literature and a B.A. in English Literature, both from Boston University. You can see my full CV here.

I sometimes take on commercial translation jobs between literary projects, mostly for museums and academic institutions. I also head the FTrMP Project, an effort to make Spanish translations of vital migration paperwork available for free online. You can reach me at info@kgdtranslation.com and follow me on Twitter.
