Writer at De Su Mamá, Vanessa Bell is building a legacy for her biracial children through memoir writing, explorations of personal identity and the documentation of traditions, travel and food culture. She is a Cuban American and bicultural Latina in an interracial marriage who aspires to raise bilingual children in a monolingual home.
