It’s fascinating how words can either unite us or drive us apart. Growing up bilingual in Spanish and English, I noticed how each language brings its own cultural differences, the nuances in the sayings and idioms. For me in my writing it's always been a challenge trying to merge these two worlds.

Now, I’m diving into my family’s history, mixing personal stories with a bit of fiction. While digging into my genealogy, I found some surprising connections, like a possible link to Caribbean slaves and a complex family tree with both slave owners and the enslaved. This journey has opened my eyes to the many shades of history’s injustices.

My writing weaves together childhood memories from Puerto Rico, family tales, and a touch of imagination.
