Artistic Statement:

I have been crafting, reading, studying, and editing poems for as long as I can remember. Poetry makes my heart sing. Each poem we write has the power to transport us—ultimately returning us to a more authentic version of ourselves and of the world around us. My life’s purpose is to create a body of work that people come back to, and to help others create the poetry of their dreams.
