DEIRDRE CAMBA graduated from the Lit and CW programs of the Ateneo de Manila University in 2013, where she also received a Loyola Schools Award for the Arts for poetry. She’s been a fellow for poetry in couple of national writers’ workshops, and STILL trudges through a CW Master’s degree at UP Diliman when she’s not busy being a corporate slave. Outside office hours, Deirdre moonlights as an English and Lit teacher, and dabbles in different movement-based disciplines in the hopes of one day finally learning the original choreography to “Oops… I Did It Again.” As in yung buong album. You can find some of Deirdre’s work in Heights, Cura, and Rambutan.
