Artist‘s Statement
With interdisciplinary interests across the arts, my writing captures who I am holistically. My stories embody life through my unique voice. Frankly, this journey has allowed me to discover components of my voice that otherwise were quieted. The thread that weaves my writing together is a desire to share my perspective and perception of the world around me.
