Shakti Castro
New York
I'm a research assistant at Centro - The Center for Puerto Rican Studies at CUNY where I do background research on, and conduct oral history interviews with, influential members of the Puerto Rican diaspora. I consider myself a student of literature in all its forms and am particularly interested in the rise of new media as a means of communication and documentation.
In addition to my work at Centro, I'm also the Blogs Editor for the online magazine, Warscapes, and a contributing writer and Copy Editor for La Respuesta magazine.
Please get in touch if you have an interest in any of my work or are in need of a writer, editor, or researcher with a background in cultural studies.
