I'm an insomniactic daydreamer (that's me in the photo). I'm married, a mother of 2 rambunctious Terrier breeds, I'm a proud Aunt, y soy Latina 🇳🇮🇲🇽 My stories contain Latin MCs and usually take place in San Francisco since it's my hometown, so naturally, I think it's a spectacular setting. I write in whatever genre the wind steers me, but always with morally grey characters in chaotic settings.

When I'm not reading and writing, I'm working in healthcare analyzing cardiac arrhythmias. It's something I'm very proud of, considering my struggles with ADHD and Dyslexia. So no matter what people tell you, don't give up!


Some of my accomplishments on Wattpad:

If you happen to come across my stories, please feel free to leave a comment. I'm always looking to improve them and make sure they flow well or make sense. Writing is very personal, and it takes guts to take what you've manifested in your thoughts and formulate them into actual words for people to judge. You're allowing readers into your mind. So have courage and be kind to one another :)

Hopefully, you'll enjoy my contribution to the Wattpad world! Cheers.
