A Reading Guide
Hello Friendi!
It’s an honor to have you here and to share my writing portfolio with you. Within this collection, you’ll find five sections:
Personal Essays
Reflective pieces rooted in lived experience—memory, emotion, and the small moments that shape how we see the world.
Memoir
An early window into a long-form memoir in progress, tracing identity, place, and the slow work of self-understanding.
Creative Series
Ongoing essay series that move through coffee shops, cities, and people, using everyday spaces as a lens for larger human questions.
Fictions
Short fictional works experimenting with form and voice, often driven by interiority and stream-of-consciousness.
Poetry
Brief poems drawn from urban observation and moments of curiosity when trying something new alters the way a scene, or a self, comes into focus.
