About Alliah
Born and raised in Buffalo, New York, Alliah L. Agostini has marketed everything from tampons to scrappy start-ups, but motherhood helped her return to her first love: children's literature. She writes to spread joy (because we can always use more of it!) and because she knows first-hand how valuable it is for more people, young readers especially, to finally see themselves reflected on the page.
A member of KidLit in Color, Black Creators in KidLit, and SCBWI, Alliah also founded and contributes to Grownesque, a blog and social media destination for Xennial women. Alliah lives in New Jersey where she enjoys impromptu dance parties and making up corny jokes with her husband and two children. She has an A.B. and M.B.A. from Harvard.
