Biography

Adriana Toribio grew up in Brazil, where she graduated and worked as an electronic engineer. She's been traveling the world–husband's work transfers–and currently lives between São Paulo and California, where she keeps her eyes and ears open to what's been happening in Silicon Valley and in Hollywood. An alumna from the SFWA Mentorship Program - Winter 2023, she completed a two-year creative writing certificate through UC Berkeley Extension, and her first novel, PERSONIFICADORES, was published by Editora Patuá in Brazil this past march. Her writing explores the intersection between technology, politics, and greed, and how it all messes up with the human experience on this planet. All her characters want is to find love and happiness, and have some financial stability, but the world is complicated. She translated her novel from Portuguese to English. She's been querying IMPERSONATOR while doing a book tour in Brazil to promote PERSONIFICADORES.
