Sanguelly Escalera is a passionate storyteller who writes from experience, truth, and heart. Growing up surrounded by challenges most people never see, she learned early on what strength and resilience truly mean. Through her writing, Sanguelly hopes to give a voice to those who grew up in silence — and to remind readers that no matter where you come from, your story has the power to heal. The Girl That Grew Up Around Drugs is her first book — a raw, moving reflection of pain turned into purpose.
