A bit about me
Hey there,
I'm a fiction writer and data analyst based in Texas. My stories often explore the quiet struggles people carry—grief, longing, perseverance, and the complexity of everyday life. I’m drawn to characters who feel stuck, isolated, or misunderstood, and I try to write in a way that’s honest and clear, without excess.
Before writing fiction, I worked (and still work) in data analytics, and that background shaped how I think—structured, curious, always looking for what’s beneath the surface. I’ve got a bachelor's and master’s in the field, but my real education has come from books, conversations, and the discipline of sitting down to write.
When I’m not writing, I’m usually reading, working out, or practicing Spanish slowly but steadily. I live with my family, and much of my writing happens in the margins—early mornings, late nights, or whenever life is quiet enough to hear myself think.
