SELECTED PROJECT
Bailando bajo la tormenta
Award-winning thesis / Spanish-language novel
2020
An award-winning Spanish-language novel that began as my Brown University thesis. Set in Madrid, Bailando bajo la tormenta weaves together fiction, humor, romance, and psychological insight in a story about OCD, healing, identity, and learning to transform one’s relationship with the mind.
“Memorable and enchanting... a knowledgeable and necessary exploration of what it means to live with OCD.”
— Marianna Kessimian, M.D.
