I am a mother, wife, daughter, and sister.
I have been a musician, technologist, executive, and advisor at different times in my career.
I love to write stories about my family of origin living through different times and from faraway places, stories about being a first-generation immigrant redefining myself, stories about being a woman of color navigating Corporate America, and stories about finding the power to make my own decisions and live life on my own terms.
I wish my family members before I had written down the memories of their lives; I wish I had understood what an American Dream truly entails; I wish I had realized that for an immigrant who looks and sounds (and sometimes thinks) differently than the majority, a true sense of belonging is not guaranteed by hard work alone; I wish someone had explained to me the corporate game rules when I entered the workplace full of passion and naivety.
So, I am here to write about these, for myself, for future generations of my family, and for those who want to embrace life with curiosity and open mind, who seek to be freed from conventional definitions of success, and who love to read, learn and grow.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for being my reader.
