About the Author
Rosemary Esehagu was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria. She immigrated to Bronx, New York City, at age sixteen, where she finished high school at Jane Addams Vocational High School and was a member of the National Honor Society. She earned her Bachelor of Arts at the prestigious Williams College in Williamstown, Massachusetts, with a major in psychology and a concentration in neuroscience. She then went on to earn her Doctor of Medicine degree. She is a practicing physician under her married name.
While she has always valued storytelling, she used to think practicing medicine was the best way to help people. As she has come into herself, embracing her past and all the facets of her, she is passionate about rekindling her love of storytelling, of inspiring the mind, because the mind is the source of who we are and how we are. Writing allows her to reach the mind, to heal the heart, and to put a balm on the soul.
Her topics of interests are intersections of identity, gender, society, trauma, and healing. She does not fit neatly into a box, hence her moniker for herself, paradoxical chameleon. She is a devout Christian, a feminist, an intersex advocate, a mental health advocate, a survivor, and an amateur dancer, among other things.
She is an introvert, but she’ll happily engage on social media platforms.
