Georgiana Quintanilla Tyquiengco is a Chamoru-Filipina writer and artist born in Guam. She is descended from Familian Ella (Quichocho) and Familian Orong (Quintanilla), raised in the villages of Yo'ña and Chalan Pago. Her artistic journey continues to be shaped by memories of her family, heritage, and work with youth nonprofits. You may find her with a friend or two asking “what if?” as they think of a script for a Guam-based romantic-comedy.
