Bio

I am a first-generation student attending the University of California, Irvine as a literary journalism major with a minor in creative writing. I hope to further my knowledge and passion for professional writing by pursuing a Mastery of Fine Arts in creative writing after college. I am most passionate about art and traveling the world and I hope to be a book author in the future!
