Stories shape and transform.

No matter where we live, 

or where we come from,

they are the thread that unites us.

About

     Alicia has a weak spot for happy endings and transformative journeys. She spent her teenage years

in Argentina and Europe, speaks several languages and loves to travel.

 

     An eclectic reader, she grew up on a diet ranging from Lucy M. Montgomery and Jane Austen to Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, Raymond Chandler, Hermann Hesse, Jorge Luis Borges, and many classics. She's never been cured of reading a bit of everything and is as likely to geek out about Mr. Darcy as Dr. Who.

​

     She is a history and astronomy aficionado, who walked the Camino de Santiago in Spain, completed her Masters in the Netherlands and worked for Google in Ireland. She decided to become a writer at six but took a full, winding road here. Along the way, she learned if there’s one thing that cuts across cultures, one unifying thread that pulls everyone together, it's a good story.

 

      A big-city girl, she now lives in the Midwest, where she occasionally picks apples and pretends witches exist.

​

      Alicia serves as ARA at the Indiana SCBWI and is a visionary at the Courage to Create (The Writing Barn).

​

      She is represented by Ellen Goff at HG Literary.
