Tina Chan

Tina Chan is a lively poet whose writing style is a poetic puzzle for readers to determine the definitive underwriting. She has an abiding passion for writing ablaze: be it poetry or be it Yelp reviews based on personal experiences for life’s juicy sweetness to eschew the negativity as an outlet. Her life’s struggles do not define her as a person, but uses it as a motivator for inspiration as an outlet in her writing. Her personal life’s experiences shape and mold her to become the person who she is today. With her writing, she is able to achieve closure to her life’s difficulties as the author of one’s own story.

Tina made her poetry debut in early 2009 and has been fortunate to be selected as a feature performer at various open-mikes. She has been published in the 2012 Brownstone Poets Anthology, Nomad’s Choir Poetry Magazine, Spring 2012 and Fall 2011; and Big City Lit, Fall 2011. Tina Chan holds for the fifth year Yelp Elite status. She recites with sprightly liveliness energy to ignite flames.
