An Bùi

I am a poet, social worker in training, and water rooster who was born in Viet Nam and raised in San José. Through my writing, I navigate family dynamics, queer Catholic Vietnamese identity, and grief. I've been honored to share my work in Autostraddle, Kearny Street Workshop, Essential Truths: The Bay Area in Color anthology, Chopsticks Alley Art, San Jose Museum of Art, and QTViet Cafe. When I'm not writing, I'm supporting first generation college grads in their mental health journeys, dreaming of family intergenerational healing, and catching as many sunsets as possible.
