Michelle Onuorah

Michelle Onuorah is a writer based in Southern California. Originally from Maryland, Michelle grew up with a love of storytelling: "I used to watch soap operas with my mom and grandma and eventually I began making up my own dramas while playing with my barbies." Eventually, she wrote down some of her stories in a notebook and continued to write for fun. At the tender age of thirteen, Michelle wrote her first book, Double Identity, and got it published the next year. By the time she graduated high school, Michelle had written and published four books. For a time, she also started her own magazine and served as the main writer and editor-in-chief. Aside from writing, Michelle pursued various interests that included modeling, acting, studying Biotechnology in high school, and learning French as a second language. Now a film student at Biola University, Michelle continues to write in her spare time, channeling much of her energy into writing for the screen. Many of her short screenplays that have been produced can be viewed under the "Screenwriter" tab of her website, michelleonuorah.webs.com
