My First Book!

Summer 2019, I came crawling back home to New Mexico after the dramatic end of my four-year relationship. I had fled the state in 2016, hoping to leave my toxic family and problems behind me in the pursuit of life, only to end up right back at the beginning.

I was 25, broke, and pretty sure I had hit rock bottom.

I hadn’t.

Over the next few years, I would survive sexual violence, become a single mother, and break in more ways than I ever thought possible. Every time things fell apart, I became a different person.

All the Names I’ve Been is a memoir about surviving the unimaginable, overcoming trauma, becoming a mother, finding faith, and learning that home isn’t always a place or a person.

It’s a story about all the women I’ve had to become to get here.

And, surprisingly, it’s a love story about being alive.

Coming December 2026. Pre-orders open November 30.

● About Me

I’m a writer, mother of two, Muslim revert, and avid storyteller. I’ve been through a lot, and still have the audacity to believe that we can build a life worth living. I write about my questionable decisions, motherhood, cycle-breaking, and whatever else comes to mind. You can expect the occasional rant against fascism and the current state of affairs in the world. Sometimes, I abandon all hope of being profound and tell a ridiculous story just because we could all use a laugh. My first book comes out in December 2026, so stick around!
