She/Her

I am a Louisiana-based author of literary fiction that explores the intersections of identity, community, and connection. I am co-creator of creative retreats that explore the intersection of creative disciplines and expression. My work digs deep into fear, vulnerability, and authenticity, weaving humor into emotionally complex characters who navigate their biases and obstacles. I am a certified Amherst Writers and Artists affiliate.
