Rosa Nadine Xochimilco Sánchez Gevaux was born from a blend of prairie wind, smudge sticks, and blue corn enchiladas; and her sensibilities leave her bridging culture, language, space, and spirit; always guided by all of her relations. She has been writing poetry since she was four years old, and has been publishing and performing her work throughout her life. With a reverence for pop culture, she loves Disneyland, comic books, collecting…everything, and epic culinary adventures. She lives with her husband and son in London and is forever searching for the best tacos and tea in the land. With the heart of a true romantic, Rosa Nadine Xochimilco Sánchez is always in love with love – and believes it is out there for everyone.
Mrs. Gevaux has published two books of poetry, Hearts Aflame, Still Burning, and Blue Bones, Blood Roses, Black Eyes. She is currently working on a collection of short stories about her family.
