edit data

I am a creative soul, a dreamer, and a lover of fiction. I often say I am someone who can’t pick a lane because so many different creative fields intrigue me.

I’ve wanted to be an author since the third grade. In fifth grade, I wrote my first novel in an oversized journal from the Hallmark store. In high school, I wrote a mess of a science fiction and dystopia. Throughout college, I participated in creative writing courses, and at Penn State, I joined the Creative Writing Club.

I sharpened my skills, found lifelong friends who pushed me to write, and finished my debut novel, “Lithium and Let’s Plays.” Outside of writing prose, I write music, poetry, make art, and work in tech.
