Who I Am<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Writer.<\/strong> Poet. Wanderer. <\/strong>Misfit. Night owl. Sri Lankan-Hungarian-American.<\/strong> Artist. Storyteller. <\/strong>Gemini Sun with a Pisces Moon. INFJ. Mom.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m a biracial author and mom who obsesses over travel, relishes getting lost in a good book, and always stays up too late. I love spooky stories, atmospheric films, rooftop views, blue lipstick, autumn skies, strong coffee, live oaks, beach bonfires, and cool breezes. I was born in Northeast Ohio but my soul is from the Lowcountry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My writing is frequently gothic and often explores themes of identity, grief, isolation, and intersectionality. My stories are peopled with Sri Lankans, queers, Hungarians, ghosts, Southerners, outcasts, and wanderers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
