Going to fine art school to study painting was my dream until I put on my first pair of tap shoes. I fell in love with dance and that passion eventually took me to NYC to study modern dance with Twyla Tharp. A few too many injuries later, a new creative quest took root.

I had a story (or two) to tell. So I applied to grad school to study creative writing and immerse myself in the craft of writing. I learned to punctuate with precision and how to write a singular story with a unique voice. I fell in love all over again, and the rest, well — it’s all copy.

When I’m not dancing on the page, I enjoy spending time in the kitchen wrestling veggies and slaying fruits or creating plant-based recipes to achieve maximum yum. Or I’m outside on a walk or hiking a mountain chasing a sunkissed horizon and that next big idea.

Either way, creative expression is calling. Can you hear it?
