After growing up in a very white space, working in a variety of roles in education, and navigating the querying trenches as a writer, I was overwhelmed, stressed out, and tired. Let's face it, the system isn't designed to see and celebrate our unique, complex selves.
From feelings of not fitting in and not being enough to embracing my Latinx heritage, writing from a place of vulnerability and authenticity healed my heart. It also allowed me to see how literacy and social justice go hand in hand. The power of story helped me love myself. Exploring my story empowered me to embrace expansion and live my best life. Now I'm here to help you open your arms and step into your best life. Let me be your guide! +Resume Explore your story.
