Jacqueline Bernabe-born and raised in The Bronx but with roots going back to the little country of El Salvador. She hopes to share her ideas and hear the ideas of others in the Girls Write Now community. Jacqueline is excited to take her pen and paper (and the Google doc) and continue writing as she dives into the Girls Write Now world. If she’s not typing away with her manicured nails, you’ll find her studying on the Lehman campus (Renaissance HS), trying new foods, going to movie theaters or binging Criminal Minds for the 3rd time.
I want to readers to see the real me and what I have to say. I’m generally a quiet person but I like to express myself through my writing. I write about my culture and self-image because I feel like those two go with one another.
