Artist‘s Statement
I create stories that either reflect my own experiences or seek to help others; I find that my best work is a combination of these. Through writing, I have found ways to feed off of my strengths as well as tackle my fears. My writing is motivated by my interest in fighting for the causes I care about, such as ocean conservation and sustainability. I hope others learn something new and helpful from my work!
