Alyssa Deuna was born in the Philippines and immigrated to Canada with her family at age 13, when she turned to writing poetry as a form of creative outlet. She graduated from the University of Calgary and pursues a career in the Hospitality industry. When she is not pouring thoughts to paper, she can be found binging food, singing at make-believe concert tours, and daydreaming. Unburden and Bloom is her debut poetry book.
