read more about me

I published my first poetry book, Still Growing Wildflowers in January 2020. I didn't talk about it much because I didn't think it was "good enough." It was born from hurt and trauma and as someone who didn't have it "that bad" growing up, I felt embarrased by it sometimes. 

But then I had friends and family and even strangers tell me that they saw themselves in those pages. That my books helped them feel less alone, even inspired some to write their own poems.

So I kept writing.

I kept writing through trying to heal a marriage that was never really whole, a separation, and divorce. 

In June 2020 I moved into an apartment of my own, creating a new home with myself and two little wolves. I found myself on a path or redisovering and reclaiming my body. Healing from nine years of neglecting it. This is where I my second poetry book, The Lovers was created. Since then I've gone on to write two more books.

I write not just for me, but for you. I hope you find yourself in these pages. I hope they help you feel less alone, more inspired, and more free to express what you're feeling. 

And I hope you're brave enough to feel.
