About This creative venture

Over the past year, I’ve discovered something beautiful. Life, it turns out, is just about living. This has been easy to understand but much harder for me to embody.

With this in mind, I am sharing some of my treasured poems, paintings, and other creative works. I was holding much of this for some future venture, and now believe it is meant to be shared. Obsessing over the details related to perfecting my craft will have to wait. My job is to make and share.

Thank you for coming into this space with me. When you read, we are co-creating meaning. I hope you are inspired and delighted by what we make. I also hope you are prompted to wrestle. I hope there are bits you resonate with and bits you rub up against. I hope you have fun here. I hope it is heavy and light all at once. I hope you are moved. I hope you are kind. But mostly, I hope you are present.
