She is passionate about exploring Armenian identity and history, and battling cultural erasure. She also nourishes a soft spot for fantasy and alternate worlds. Nadine lives in the Bay Area where she digs holes in her garden and dreams of diving into waves at sea.

Her debut YA graphic novel ARMAVENI is coming in Spring 2026, with Levine Querido.
