Missing the human voice wrapped up in letters, pauses, erratic pulses and messy minds.

To those who write like they speak, and carve the lives of their thoughts through blood, sweat and care... stay you.

Let's collaborate!

In 2013, I entered grad school and earned the first MA Ed in Mindful Ed. & Trauma Studies.
