HEY.
WELCOME TO MY SHOW-OFF-GET-PAID PORTFOLIO.
Typical third culture kid. Born and raised in the Gulf to Hungarian and Egyptian parents.
THE recipe for an identity crisis.
Why writing? Not sure.
But I think I was inspired to write my first poem by the age of 9. It wasn’t half bad, to be honest.
I was the introverted kid that didn’t enjoy talking or playing dodgeball as much as she liked reading about WWII (and Captain Underpants) in the library.
I guess the the darkness of Hitler’s actions and the ridiculousness of Captain Underpants all instigated a love for copy.
To be honest, I wasn’t planning on writing at all. I always wanted to be a singer.
But one of my college professors forced me to get into advertising, setting me up in interviews.
So, I gave in and did both. You can call me a singing writer.
I’m currently freelancing, and I’ve never been happier.
