She has been writing ever since she was 11 years old, even entered and won the Chicago Young Authors Award at the age of 11 with a book she had written and illustrated herself. At that time, she got the chance to meet several authors whom had read her work and told her that she had great storytelling capabilities. Encouraged by that she continued to write for years with the encouragement of a favorite English teacher in high school, and friends whom enjoyed her stories when she shared them. She also was the first in her family to finish college and get her Associates Degree in Computer Information Systems with a minor in Computer Networking.vizualizați mai puține
