Welcome to the digital version of my journal! Here, I will be sharing with you poems, thoughts, ideas, stories, things that make me mad... etc. This is sort of a way for me to express myself, and show what it is like as a woman, an intersectional feminist at that, today.

Thanks so much for coming to visit, taking the time to read all my writing. Hopefully you get something meaningful out of what I am trying to say. I will be updating this blog as much as possible!

I'll leave you with this quote from one of my favorite poems: March 7 by Rumi.

"cut holes, call it human. it has been writing that gave it life."

About The "Author"

I was born and raised in central New Jersey-- lovely, I know-- as a Quaker/Jewish child hybrid. I grew up with a love for reading and writing (as my dad was an English major). I lived and attended school in NJ until my sophomore year. I transitioned into a boarding school in Pennslyvania, where my passion for writing, art, performing, ACTIVISM, and (of course) poetry, flourished.

In my writing, you're going to find me. Whether that be my struggles, my thoughts, my stories, my successes, it really depends on what you decide to read. Feel free to contact me any time for questions or even just a conversation about stuff. Happy reading!
