Marisa B. Kosters is an author and licensed California attorney who holds a Master’s degree in Peace & Justice where she studied historical wars, conflict, and methods for reconciliation.

She grew up in Fresno, California--the very best place for fresh roadside strawberries in the summertime. Fresno is home to one of the most robust Armenian communities in the United States where every family gathering is large, filled with love, and suffused with mouthwatering food. Her ethnic heritage combined with the Armenian Genocide of 1915 formed within her an intrigue for the destruction caused by corrupt leadership and racial hatred across the globe and through time.  

Marisa and her husband spend their free time at the beach playing with their two sons, reading novels and children's books, and hiking and biking around town. She is grateful to God for the blessing of her family and His unconditional love.
