José Luis Montero, President José Luis Montero is passionate about storytelling regardless of the medium. After dabbling in radio, photography and filmmaking, he recently turned his artistic attention towards the written word, both in English and Spanish. Born and raised in Mexico, but having lived most of his adult life in Seattle pursuing a career in software engineering, he is the embodiment of contradiction: someone who is proud of nurturing both hemispheres of his brain, but tormented by the dilemma of balancing his passion for technology with his innate call to contemplate and create beauty. He earned a certificate in Literary Fiction from University of Washington and a Master in Narrative from Escuela de Escritores in Madrid. Upon his return from Spain, he worked as a production intern for Copper Canyon Press and served as president of Seattle Escribe, a nonprofit promoting Spanish literature in Washington state. Currently, he is a 2021 Jack Straw Writers Fellow and assistant editor of poetry for Narrative Magazine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea36eb3e2d09e40552024b/1709234676465-8C2GMRGINW97DYEA5YDT/image-asset.jpeg Board of Directors - Bretty Rawson, Treasurer Bretty Rawson (he/they) is a writer, artist, and co-founding member of The Seventh Wave, a literary arts nonprofit that publishes art in the space of social issues.
