About
How it All Began
I began writing in 2017, just after intentionally embarking on a difficult transition in my life. Writing was my way of preserving and exploring the truth of my experience while blogging became a way of sharing it with others. During this difficult time I discovered my love of writing and just how powerful of a tool it can be on a path of healing.
Fast forward seven years.
I find myself living life alongside my incredibly supportive and loving husband in the Netherlands and with a whole new exciting career trajectory that I could have never imagined for myself.

Eternal optimist. Endlessly curious.
Right now I am focused on rebuilding my writing and photography practice and deepening my personal practice.
Much of what you’ll see here are works in progress, notes – things I’ll return to later and maybe modify or add to. I’ve given myself permission to grow through my content which I think is the only way to really find yourself as a writer.
am a graduate of the London School of Journalism and spent most of my professional life as an educator.
