Adriana Páramo

Website

Adriana is a Colombian writer, born in cold Bogotá but raised in Medellín, The City of Eternal Spring.

She received her bachelors of science in Petroleum Engineering and worked as a geophysicist for a multinational oil company. Alas, it took her ten years in the industry to realize that looking for oil was not her thing.

In 1992, she left Colombia to make radical changes in her life. She moved to Alaska where a few years later, she graduated as a Cultural Anthropologist with an emphasis in dance ethnography.
