Hola. Don’t let the name fool you. I’m a mixed blood Latino Irish Indigenous American. By way of Los Angeles, American Samoa, Seattle, New Mexico, San Francisco, and Sonoma County. And for about 50 years (with more to come) I’ve been writing and making art.
In fact I've dedicated my life to telling stories - in many different genres and styles - about the extraordinary events in ordinary lives, often drawing from my own immigrant family, and my own mixed race being. As a teacher I've guided thousands of students into the realm of their own imaginations and creativity and helped them bring dreams to fruition.
Check out the links in the heading to find my new venture: readings and performances of my own poetry and music. I hope you’ll enjoy, and pass on the good word if you’re so inclined.
Viva!
