Laurel Fantauzzo is a writer and a teacher. Much of her work finds her studying appetites, identity, the signals for real love, and the search for home. She is largely a nonfiction writer and an essayist, but she also writes young adult fiction. 
 
Laurel Fantauzzo was born in Southern California to a Filipina mother and an Italian-American father. She later lived in Brooklyn, Manila, and Iowa City. She currently writes in Quezon City, Philippines, and she teaches at Ateneo de Manila University.

I am interested on how we construct our identities, how we maneuver displacement, how we communicate or fail to communicate, and how we can develop a healthy introspection as a platform for stronger, more active empathy.
