Abbey Monsalud is a second-generation Filipina immigrant from Chicago, Illinois. She is currently en route to become a licensed art therapist and counselor. She is a novice to poetry, but she has always been intrigued by the power of words and the process of its art. Abbey hopes that her poetry reaches out to those who also feel small in this vast world.
