As a blogger and memoirist, I write real stories about mental illness, child abuse, language barriers, and identity. My debut memoir "I Asked the Blue Heron" is now available in stores and online in Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo.

Why Venezuela Matters?

• Currently, Venezuelans are being killed with American money. Golden Sacks just bought bonds thus giving the narco-regime much needed cash to continue its repression.

• Oil refining in the once thriving nation is down to 16% daily capacity. Instead Venezuelan crude oil goes to Cuba where it is refined and sold. Two totalitarian regimes are benefitting from depleting Venezuela of its natural resources and sovereignty.

• Malnutrition will cause devastating effects on the brain of an entire generation of Venezuelans. Its effects will carry on for at least three generations.
