me

i grew up by the sea, raised on a steady diet of stories, black & white cinema, stargazing, and imagination. those moments, images, characters, and even a little bit of sand still pepper my writing, films, and pockets. i write because i want to tell stories. i write because i want to show beauty, pain, redemption, and love. i write because that’s what i was meant to do, and it’s in my blood. so thank you, for sharing in my existence, and i will continue to try my very best to pen contributing sentences, no matter how small, to the great stories of the lovely unfinished.
