I am a Mexican-American author who grew up in California and Hawaii. I hold an MFA in Creative Writing for Children and Young Adults from Hollins University and am also a graduate of the Children's Book Academy. As a professor of English at the University of Arizona, I spend my time editing, teaching (children's and YA literature), and overseeing Pine Reads Review, an online YA literature publication run by an incredible team of undergraduate interns at the University of Arizona. In addition to the work we publish online, our mission includes local outreach engaging our community through writing contests, volunteer work, and hosting events.

I enjoy visiting schools and empowering children to love and interact with books and writing in customized presentations that showcase the rich diversity of children's literature. From university teaching to talking with children, I love opening the world of kidlit to students of all ages!
