I am a writer/editor based in Los Angeles.

From as early as I can remember, I’ve loved stories. I started writing to record the recipes and stories I grew up hearing, shared with me by my Mexican and Lebanese family. Now I write about the intersection of food, memory, culture, and identity.

I studied storytelling at the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies in Portland, Maine. I hold an MFA from Northern Arizona University and a BFA from New York University. My work has appeared in the The Rumpus, the Journal of Popular Culture, Gothamist, the Acentos Review, Freerange Nonfiction, Word Riot, and more.

I am writing a memoir about siblings and addiction, and a collection of fiction essays based on my travels.

As a ghostwriter, editor, and production editor, I work with storytellers to bring their book projects to life.
