About Me

Ishta Mercurio

I was born and raised in a multicultural family in Cincinnati, Ohio, until I was 16. Then I went to college in the Berkshires, spent a rustic summer on a Maine island, got married in England, found my home in Scotland, and made a new home in Canada.

I have been an environmental activist, a barista, a behavior therapist, an actor, and an author. I still am most of those things, but I only do a couple of them for money. Mostly, I am a storyteller.
