  Jean Ferruzola

  Hi, I’m Jean Ferruzola, a writer and narrative designer based in Seattle. I write stories that explore intergenerational storytelling, heritage, and the complex, messy, beautiful dynamics of family. As a first-generation Ecuadorian American, I’m especially interested in how identity and history shape the way we tell—and pass down—our stories.
