I’m an emerging author based out of Denver, Colorado. My essays focus on family, history, and culture.

Nature evolves and revolves through cycles. Birth, life, and death are looped endlessly, depending on one another in an ecological system that is meant to sustain itself. Writing is cyclical, as well. An idea can germinate and grow, while other ideas die off or are resurrected elsewhere. And like a graveyard, our writing will either be remembered, forgotten, or destroyed by others.

The first time I remember receiving feedback on my writing was from my fifth-grade teacher. I do not remember her name, but our class was given the assignment to read Cheaper by the Dozen and write a book report. I do not believe that I read the book, nor did I write an original report. I think I just copied from the encyclopedia in those days.
