Yalda Ash

Yalda has been working in corporate accounting for the past two decades. But her first love has always been storytelling, with a particular penchant for concocting humorous mysteries ever since she read her first Hercule Poirot novel. She's a 2025 Authored finalist and when she isn't writing, you can find her attempting her mother's Iranian recipes, lounging by the pool with her kids and dog, or finding another home renovation project to drive her husband crazy with.
