About Claribel Ortega

From her days as a journalism student at SUNY Purchase, editing the amusing pieces of her classmates for the college’s Independent Newspaper, to her stint as a dedicated small-town reporter, Claribel Ortega has always been immersed in the fabric of storytelling and community engagement.

Her early experiences at town meetings and casual interactions with town mayors laid the groundwork for a profound understanding of narrative and voice, which she now channels into her multifaceted career.

Today, Claribel is not just a marketer traveling the world but also a creator who turns her passion for eighties pop culture, magic, and video games into compelling books.

She’s the voice behind the WRITE OR DIE podcast and the entrepreneurial force behind GIFGRRL, a graphic design venture, and the GIFGRRL SHOP, catering to the creative needs of writers and other creatives with uniquely designed apparel.

Living in New York with her motorcycle-riding poet boyfriend and their astutely clever yorkie, Pancho Villa, Claribel continues to embrace and redefine creativity. Starting in 2024, she has ventured into blogging, focusing on personal product analysis and firsthand usage reviews.
