My name is Claudia Delfina Cardona.

I am a poet born and raised in San Antonio, Texas. I received my B.A. from St. Mary’s University in English Communication Arts and my MFA in Creative Writing from Texas State University. My poems have appeared in Apogee Journal, Cosmonauts Avenue, Salt Hill Journal, and many more lovely publications. I co-founded Chifladazine, a zine that highlights creative work by Latinas and Latinxs, in 2013 alongside Laura Valdez. In Fall 2019, I co-founded Infrarrealista Review, a literary journal for Texan writers, with Linda Rivas Vázquez. I co-host the podcast “Clint and Claudia talk about movies” where we pick a double feature and talk about it every week. I’m currently open to freelance graphic design and editorial work. I’ve done logos, layouts, and illustrations.
