My poem “To the Girl I Was Before the Sky Fell In” was selected as The Poet Heroic Poem of the Week for August 22, 2025.

​

This piece is a letter to my younger self, an exploration of resilience, loss, and the quiet power of growing into the person you once needed. It reflects on what we carry, what we let go of, and the strength found in no longer pretending.
