Hello!

It's nice to meet you!

I am a writer, poetess, sometimes a tarot reader, but mostly I am an obsessive lover of storytelling. Everything is that deep and no I’ve never gotten over anything ever. If that sounds like you then please get cozy and make yourself at home here.

 

I love reading, writing, and drinking copious amounts of tea. I have also been sharing my work online for the last 10 Years. I have plenty of experience writing, branding, and creating community through words.

I write about my experiences as a queer woman of color. I am interested in tapping into the emotions of the human experience and want nothing more than to be able to create community with those who resonate with my work. I am also a tarot reader and run Flor and Honey, an online space dedicated to community work, healing, and reclaiming our narratives. I also run a newsletter on substack which is a collection of reviews, personal essays, and various other writings, called Con Cariño.

Welcome to my little corner of the internet. :)
