ABOUT DIANNA CHOW

Illustrator, author, singer, dancer, mom, wife, Christian, mentor, and general silly goose. I take life with its curve balls and rollercoasters. (Rollercoasters are fun, right?)
As my favorite story often repeated, “Just be yourself, you’ll be fine.” (Fruits Basket) WOW. It’s such general advice but the way it has shaped me and has grown with me through the years has me shocked. I look back at little insecure teenage Dianna, and I realize how cool it really is to be who I am. Like, no one else comes close! Even though I still feel like a total dweeb, people love total dweebs! It’s so much better than being a total blah.
Writing gave me the opportunity to story-tell to young adults searching to find themselves. While illustration gave me the opportunity to make it look cool. HA.
I mentor middle school and high school students every week to ensure I’m with the hip and happening lingo. “No cap” and all that. I’m excited to where I’m whisked off too next and what stories I get to tell when I’m there.
