In my opinion piece for The New York Times, I look back on my time as an undocumented immigrant in the US, my decision to self-deport, and what becoming a British citizen taught me about myself.

For The Nation, I dissected Duterte’s rise to power, what gave him the impunity to extrajudicially kill, and how it all links back—and to—the United States.

For Electric Lit, I had the pleasure of interviewing Qian Julie Wang, bestselling author of Beautiful Country, on her years growing up as an undocumented immigrant in New York City.

This is where my memoir began: as a pair of essays. For The Margins, Asian American Writers’ Workshop’s literary magazine, I wrote about two Filipino recipes, the memories and histories they evoke, and my family.
