Hey Y’all!
mp4 said to get on camera, so…“action”
THE BACK COVER
I’ve been writing my entire left-handed life and took it beyond a hobby in 2018. I started performance dance at 11 years old, stopped at 29, and am now considering reentering the art for myself…no one else. Just enjoyment and release.
Interests:
child psychology
doula work and maternal health research
blogging
live events (music, dance, poetry, lectures, etc.)
reading the labels on everything
solo travel
making anything a biblical lesson
intimate and deep conversation
daytrading
Hobbies:
skating and biking
audio journaling
weight training and pilates
cleaning and organizing
reading (fav: historical fiction)
Aspirations:
fall in love with my body doing ballet
finish a 15-month project before Summertime 2026
meet Will Smith (8-year-old me can dream)
practice more whimsy, spontaneity, and unadulterated self-love/appreciation
reintroduce annual family reunions (since I’m supposedly now one of the adults 🤷🏾♀️)
