Amandalina started in the broadcasting industry as a reporter for Rogers TV. While creating scripts for tv segments, she realized she had a passion for writing. Growing up, she was surrounded by awesome cars like her father's 1974 Triumph TR6 and her mother's 1981 Camaro Z28. As a result, her and her brother have always had an affinity for cars. "My mother broke down female stereotypes for me. She showed me that a pair of heels should never stop me from driving a badass car."
