Jamie Ofelia's debut picture book, MIGUEL MUST FIGHT!, is a 2025 Honor-Award winner for the Brigid Erin Flynn Award for Best Picture Book. It has received starred reviews from Kirkus and Shelf Awareness, and has been nominated for the 2025 Rhode Island Latino Books Award for grades K through 2nd.

As a biracial Latina, Jamie writes stories so Latine kids can see themselves reflected as heroes in mainstream children's literature. She holds her master’s degree in marriage and family therapy and is currently living in Dallas, where she spends her days reading diverse children’s books with her son. When her son gets bored, she continues reading diverse children’s books all by herself.
