Aylene is an emerging writer based in San Francisco. She has just completed her debut novel, Good Seed, the story of a woman’s awakening that causes her to question her marriage, her sexuality, and her privilege, set against the backdrop of the modern-day cannabis world in San Francisco.

 

Aylene is driven by the stories we tell ourselves, and how to change those stories to better serve us. She is the founder of STAX studio, where she teaches classes on how to shift mindsets, process emotions, and get unstuck, using a playful combination of writing and cardboard art. She believes the writing process is a metaphor for life and her mission is to help people create their own story, one box at a time.
