About Nica C.T.

Hello, my name is Nica.

I'm a writer who tells stories that come from a Filipino experience. I write about love. I write about joy and pain. My work is often called honest.

I am a Manila girl ~ which means I grew up riding jeepneys, tricycles, taxis cabs, and air-conditioned cars. After graduating high school, I moved to the Bay Area to study at UC Berkeley where I queried and researched why poverty exists. Such themes are embedded in my work as an artist and as a professional working in workforce development.

Having had an art practice since 2013, I experiment with mediums like paint, textile, and paper to discover new ways to tell a story. Kwento by Nica is a living memoir of creativity with a beginning and (so far) no end.

Nice to meet you!
