As A Writer...
I have always loved writing and creating stories. From my early childhood days, I would get lost in my imagination and scribble down my stories on anything I could find.
Now, I write fantasy, horror, mystery, and more. I have over 10 years of experience with professional writing and editing, and I jump at every chance to write something new and different to expand my horizons and learn more every day.
My stories are heavily influenced by my background. Growing up with diverse friends, having an immigrant mother, and being half-Desi half-white inspired me to write about diverse characters and their shared struggles often left unspoken.
For much of my life, I have struggled with depression and anxiety. It can be scary to talk about, but I like to in case someone relates. I know now that I’m not alone, and I hope you know that too. While I like to tackle hard subject matters, I hope my stories can still uplift people, bring them together, or even let one person know they, too, deserve a happy ending.
I was born and raised on the Central Coast of California. After a brief stint in Colorado, I returned home. When not writing or taking photos, I can be found cuddling with my dogs and cat, playing video games, watching wrestling, and much, much more.
I am currently unagented.
