“We have all a better guide in ourselves, if we would attend to it, than any other person can be.”

—Jane Austen, Mansfield Park

I am a proud Bay Area native and former Seattle transplant currently living in Dallas, Texas. I earned my bachelor’s degree in English literature from UC Berkeley and received my MBA from UCLA Anderson. I currently work in HR in tech.

My writing has been published by Hippocampus Magainze, Belmont Story Review, and Third Street Review.

Beyond writing, I have a wide range of interests and hobbies, like dancing bachata and salsa, investing in my health and wellness, and spending quality time with my husband.
