How has your upbringing influenced your writing? I moved around a lot as a child, which has given me a wide perspective on the world and the different cultures living in it. I think this has greatly enhanced my own writing and made the characters I create feel more alive.
Do you recall how your interest in writing originated? Not exactly. Even before I could write I was fascinated by books, and I loved when my grandparents and parents read to me. According to my grandfather, I had all the stories he would read to me (Disney’s Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty,…) memorized after the first couple of times he read then, so he could never skip ahead in the story without me knowing 
When and why did you begin writing? I began writing in Middle School and got a little more serious about it in High School. But I didn’t start writing with an aim to be published until after college. As for why, I just don’t know, it made me happy to write.
What inspires you to write and why? Lots of thinks ignite my imagination, a bit of a conversation, a random idea, the way the light glistens off a lake. I’ll see or hear such things, then imagine a character being the one hearing and seeing them, and a story will be born. I also like to listen to music while I write; classical music is great, as are those sounds of nature recordings. They really help me get into the story.
What genre are you most comfortable writing? I like to write fantasy the most, though I am also quite comfortable writing literary fiction
