Ankober is an Ethiopian first-gen born and raised in Seattle. She grew up attending and participating in poetry readings at Hugo House. In her early and mid-twenties, she traveled the world in an effort to “find herself.” She didn’t—and is now back home in Seattle, doing what she loves: sipping coffee and managing her mental health. She graduated from Bennett College for Women in Greensboro, North Carolina where she pursued a self-designed major in Womanist Spiritual Quest. Ankober believes the world was formed from a word and has dedicated her life to following wherever beautiful words (and worlds) may lead her. Her writing is on the inter-webs.
