I joined the Wattpad Community at the age of 13 but I was already writing comics and stories on my old notebook since I was 9. My old stories on Wattpad are already deleted and unpublished. The stories on my works today are written around 2017 and 2018 (I was 17 years old).
I am a hopeless romantic and I've always viewed 'love' as something beautiful. From Disney love stories up to romance films, I've always loved love. Thus, these led me to write stories in an attempt of immortalizing my ideals about love and 'kilig.'
As a Christian, I try to make my stories a tool to reach out to other people. I wanted to share what kind of love and relationships teenagers and women like me should desire and I wanted to also influence the younger generations with stories that are good and heartwarming.
What drove me to write the stories I have in my works today is the desire to read something that wouldn't affect my faith, principles, and perspective. I thought that if I can't find a book that I can read that wouldn't influence me negatively, I will write them instead. Write what you want to read.
I've always believed that what we read influences us a lot. Thus, I try, as much as I can, to write stories that bring comfort, peace, hope, and love---something that would be a good influence on the youth.
I have been a teenager myself and I know how much we get excited about the idea of love. In this sense, I desired to give the youth something that will guide them with what they should know about love (not only romantically but also with family/friends/their own selves) and the love that they deserve to receive. This is in the hopes that in my own little way, I could contribute something good to the youth and the community. This has become my purpose and it's my purpose up to this day.

When I was in my 7th grade in junior high school (year 2013), I came across a Facebook status from a classmate I had when I was Grade 2. She mentioned that she's reading on Wattpad. Curious, I tried downloading the app and eventually got addicted with reading the stories on the platform.
