I’m a writer focused on stories of love, loss, and what it means to keep living forward when life changes you. My work blends grief, memory, humor, and hope, and often lives at the intersection of writing and journaling. My upcoming book of essays, The Luck We Carry: Love, Loss, and the Stories that Shape Us, comes out on March 23, 2026.

It’s where I show up regularly, on the page, and invite you to do the same.
