I write the way I paint — chasing moments of tenderness, ache, and ordinary magic. My work lives somewhere between poetry and diary entry, gathering memories, small griefs, bright joys, and the strange humor of being a person in the world.

Inspired by writers like Audre Lorde, Ocean Vuong, Mary Oliver, Robert Frost, Virginia Woolf, and Sylvia Plath, I lean into language that’s equal parts intimate, reflective, and a little bit funny when it needs to be. I believe in honoring softness, naming what’s beautiful, and not taking yourself too seriously while you do it.

Through essays, poems, zines, and passing thoughts scribbled in the margins of my grid-lined notebooks, I hope my words inspire you to look at the world a little differently and to provide radiance.
