Bilingual writer, illustrator, and cheese enthusiast.

I'm an avid user of the em dash and a firm believer in the Oxford comma (#sorrynotsorry Vampire Weekend).
Originally from California, I most recently meandered back from northern Nevada after repatriating to the US mid-pandemic from Tokyo, Japan—where the quality of dairy is great but the selection of cheeses is not.
This portrait of the artist as a not-so-young woman was illustrated by a friend.
It very accurately captures the perma-scowl that is a key family trait passed down through the generations.
