Sarina Dahlan

Sarina Dahlan was born into an Indonesian family in Thailand, and immigrated to the United States at the age of twelve. While children in the west grew up on fairytales, she learned parables through ghost stories, mythologies, and Japanese manga.

A graduate of the University of California, San Diego with degrees in Psychology and Visual Arts, she has blended both disciplines in careers as an advertising producer, a corporate marketing strategist, and a writer. 

She finds inspiration for her stories in traveling, the people she knows, and the places she has lived. She currently resides in California with her family.

Her short story collection, Shadow Play: Ten Tales from the In-between is available for purchase.

Her debut speculative novel, RESET, will be published in May 2021 by Blackstone Publishing.
