I am a first-generation college graduate from the University of California, Irvine, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Literary Journalism with a minor in Creative Writing in 2024. As a writer and storyteller, I’m passionate about exploring how language, art, and culture connect people across the world. I plan to pursue my master’s in professional writing abroad to strengthen my skills in creative communication, journalism, and global storytelling. My goals are rooted in curiosity, cross-cultural learning, and creative expression, and I’m dedicated to using my education to empower others through words. My goal is to become a published author and professional writer who uses storytelling to educate, empower, and connect people across the world. I envision launching a business that motivates others to embrace writing and analog storytelling—reviving the art of personal documentation in our increasingly digital era.
