As a Mexican-American in this country, we have a unique story.
It is a story of being the first generation to complete the cycle our ancestors started when they first set sights for the American Dream. The first to go to college. The first to own a house. The first to break the cycle in many family curses.
Yet, it’s a generation that is removed from its roots. A generation that has had difficulty finding where it fits in; finding its voice and identity. A struggle of never feeling “Mexican enough” because we don’t speak the Spanish language, and still constantly reminded that we don’t belong in America.
Through ink to paper, Ulloa finds his voice for not only himself, but for many alike in this America.
With a number of upcoming releases including a book of flash fiction pieces and the first of his Phasing Between novel series, Ulloa’s work incorporates themes of survival, family, underdog triumph, death/grief, and mental health. He’s particularly interested in complex, poetic, and philosophical Dramas. He is expected to graduate from Full Sail’s Associate of Creative Writing program in April 2025, and Full Sail’s Bachelor of Communications in January of 2026.
