Bio

I am a bilingual queer Chilean-American  

who engages communities through

writing and artistic practices with

magical realism, joy, and play.  

 My first picture book is Nana and Abuela, with a second arriving in 2026, Patchwork Memories. I am also a member of SCBWI and I have created many interactive art installations.

I live with my wife, niece, and nephew in Minneapolis, MN where I befriend local librarians, mend clothes, and stoop sit.
