writing is healing.

I write stories about healing, identity, grief, and joy. 

I'm currently at work on my debut novel, which follows a young girl whose life unravels after the death of her grandfather in El Salvador. 

My fiction explores the themes of belonging, love, complex family dynamics, and how we heal. 

On Writing 
I grew up spending long afternoons in the public library, reading anything I could get my hands on. Stories were my first way of understanding the world around me. I love how stories can take us to the unimaginable.
