Washington City Paper named her one of its Change Makers for the 2024 People Issue and had brought the group in for a photo shoot. “I fell in love with the place,” she says. “I thought it would be the perfect spot for building a sense of community—and then I saw all the activities listed!”It echoes how the ebullient, 33-year-old Mexico City native feels about opening Pascual on Capitol Hill, which is celebrating its 1-year anniversary in February.
The Life of a Poet is a quarterly series of conversations that Hill Center launched in 2013. The series offers a rare opportunity to consider a writer’s entire career and explore the major events that have shaped their work.
