I've been writing for just about ten years now, but poetry was a genre I never felt I could "do" or "do well". It wasn't until college, when I started to plug into my creative voice more consistently, that I took a chance on a poetry notebook and found such catharsis in this new form of self-expression. The process has become very empowering and gratifying for me, so I hope to keep this passion alive and publish a book of my poems by the time I turn thirty. Take a look at some of my favorites below!
