About Elisa
Writer and Activist / Escritora y Activista
“I write because I’m scared of writing, but I’m more scared of not writing.” — Gloria Anzaldúa
“Escribo porque tengo miedo de escribir. Pero tengo más miedo de no escribir.” — Gloria Anzaldúa
I was born to write. I have been published in the Huffington Post, the San Francisco Chronicle, La Opinión, Wired News, and Daily Kos. I am passionate about writing, building community, and empowering the citizenry.
My writing is accessible to different constituencies, and I can speak, read and write Spanish in addition to English with native fluency. I currently work as a campaign director at a digital women’s rights organization. The opinions expressed on my personal website and blog are strictly my own, and not that of my employer.
