Hey! I'm Chesta

I’m Chesta — a writer, a creator, and a constant learner. From underwriting complex insurance portfolios for over 13 years to imagining fantastical worlds in “Tales of Tira,” my journey has been anything but linear. And that’s what makes it beautiful.

For more than a decade, I thrived in the precision-driven world of insurance, mastering the art of assessing risk, making critical decisions, and guiding clients through financial uncertainties. But deep within, stories were quietly blooming — stories of wonder, courage, and a little girl named Tira who paints her world with magic.

So, I began writing.

“Tales of Tira” is more than a series — it’s a love letter to childhood curiosity and resilience. It’s where my analytical mind meets my creative heart. It’s where structure meets soul.

Now, I stand at the intersection of logic and imagination — equally at home with a spreadsheet or a sketchpad. I’m not done underwriting risks, but I’m now also underwriting dreams — mine and those of others who dare to explore more than one path.

This is my story: a student of life, a woman reinventing herself, and an adventurer discovering new ways to blend professionalism with poetry.

And the best part?
I’m just getting started.
