I was born in 1960 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, a beautiful island which I am sure you would like to visit sometime. I lived in San Juan until just after finishing high school and then went to college at the end of the summer of 1978. After a couple of years in Saint Louis at Washington University I left for Madrid, Spain, to study during my junior year. It was while living there that I decided that I would become a literary scholar and a teacher. Once I left college, I enrolled in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Harvard University where, several years later, I earned my Ph.D. in Spanish Literature. In 1990, after finishing my doctoral dissertation, I joined the Department of Foreign Languages and Literature at the University of Puget Sound where I have been teaching, writing, and having fun until now. Before I go on any further, here's my curriculum vitae, the document that spells all of the above in detail.
