Nancy Perez Fugere is a retired registered nurse whose literary journey began in the vibrant and close-knit Mexican American community of Compton, California, where she grew up cherishing the annual visits from her beloved Tía Cajeta every Christmas.

Mi Tía Cajeta is a testament to Nancy's dedication to preserving and sharing her heritage. Through her writing, Nancy invites readers to experience the beauty of her family traditions and the essence of her Mexican American heritage.
