welcome

Whether on the page or the stage, Lucía is driven by a single goal: to uplift stories that inspire, challenge, and connect. She has been an avid reader since childhood and began writing poetry and fiction in middle school. Over the years, her work has been recognized by both local and national organizations, and she has had the opportunity to further develop her craft through summer writing programs including the Iowa Young Writers' Studio. Hoping to take her love of storytelling into the Miami community, she launched a writing mentorship service in 2018 and, in 2022, conducted a research project exploring the impact of writing programs on the development of young writers.

With a deep appreciation for the nuances of narrative, Lucía enjoys working as a Writing Fellow at Brown, editing multilingual submissions for SOMOS Latinx Literary Magazine, and helping speakers shape their ideas for TEDxBrownU, where she emphasizes the importance of clarity, authenticity, and voice. Her own TEDx talk, “The Place Where Anything Is Possible,” presented creative writing as a tool for imagining new realities.

Looking ahead, Lucía is fascinated by the intersection of storytelling and event production, including formats such as TED Talks, author Q&As, and community writing workshops. She has had the opportunity to intern at an independent bookstore in Miami and bilingual literary publishing press in Providence, and is currently exploring professional opportunities in the writing, editing, and publishing fields.
