Society has changed perception of how we treat our languages and most parents make it a point to teach their kids English as early as possible denying them the chance to learn their mother tongues.

To the next generation, I would like to pass on a sense of confidence not only in pursuit of what you want but also in facing who you are. Through my work as an author, I would like to awaken the power within for every reader, the confidence to chase those dreams that seem too big and the courage to live a life of open expression.
