About me
Iwas born in L.A., but as a child, I moved around a lot. I lived most of my life in the jungles of Peru in a village called Villa Rica. I knew I wanted more and better for myself, which is why I decided to move to U.S. at fifteen with only $300 in my pocket. Along with: no education beyond even finishing elementary, and I had to teach myself to write, speak, and read Spanish and English.
One aspect of my accomplishments is that I am an author of a highly successful novel; El Simbolo in Latin America, Peru.
My biggest passion is writing screenplays to convey a message that will have a clear voice of reality, and that many will identify with.
My passion in writing. takes me to a place where I explore the many ways that words could touch a person.
I also volunteer and I am an active representative of Centro de Madres
Adolecentes de Villa Maria del Triunfo, in Lima, Peru. In this, I advocate for young girls that become mothers due to rape and help assist them in my own personal way through their journey.
Lastly. these are the titles of some of my latest work on screenplays:
- Standing Still (Motion Picture)
- The Boy of Summer (Motion Picture)
- El Gringo (TV Series)
- El Libro (Spanish Motion Picture)
- Lo Que Nos Une (Spanish Motion Picture)
- Todas (Spanish Motion Picture
