Hi! I am a writer, educator, and creator. I graduated from Coudersport Area Jr/Sr High School, Virginia Tech, and Florida State University. My highest honors are in Lived Experiences with people and in places across time. I enjoy toggling between realms of what is real and what is imagined or perceived. I find inspiration through making connections among people and recognizing patterns within a shared humanity that operates in relationship to the natural world. I live with my family in State College, Pennsylvania.
Among trees.
Looking into my paternal grandmother’s mirror.
I see her in me.
I see my first gray hair strands.
Will my hair turn white like hers?
The past.
My future.
Now.
Is the creation.
I set the mirror down.
I see.
Your turn.
In nature.
With trees.
With Self.
Reflection.
