About G.M. DiDesidero
Gina DiDesidero is a Chickasaw author, born and raised in the Tri-Cities, Washington. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies from Simpson University and a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences from Washington State University. Although her early career in biology and ecology included internships at national labs and teaching, she gravitated toward writing, even if it was the dry, technical variety. She wrote many articles, websites, and research papers before daring to step into creative writing.
Along with living overseas with her family for over nine years in far-flung locations, such as the Marshall Islands and Saudi Arabia, DiDesidero joined the Peace Corps where she served the Mayan, Mestizo, and Creole people of Belize. She’s visited twenty-six countries to date. Currently, she lives in Satellite Beach, Florida, with her husband and three children—including one child with special needs, meaning flexibility is their superpower—and Marshall, their mini Australian shepherd. In her free time, DiDesidero reads enough books from her nightstand to stave off death-by-book avalanche, explores new destinations with her family, and impersonates runners on the beach.
