Carmen Dolina is a Filipino computer science graduate and game development student, so she doesn't know how she ended up writing poetry. In 2023, she received a Loyola Schools Award for the Arts for her poetry and was a fellow at the 28th Ateneo HEIGHTS Writers Workshop. In the same year, she released her first self-published chapbook Woke Up in a Safe House. Her work has appeared in DEAR, HAD, horde, the lickety~split, TLDTD, and Sweet Tree Review, among others. Her biggest regret is selling her Carly Rae Jepsen tickets to go to theater rehearsals that ended up getting canceled.
