About Me
I am a queer Chicana writer, storyteller and actor, with a background in marketing strategy, institutional communications and project management. I’m the eldest daughter who was raised to fight like an eldest son, and a long-time scholar of grief. Born and raised on the unceded territory of the Ramaytush Ohlone, I’m deeply passionate about land sovereignty, feminist praxis and accessibility across personal, academic and professional settings.
