Poetry and reflections on love, belonging, faith and the parts of ourselves we are still learning to understand.
WRITING
Words for what we carry.
The Way Home is a collection of poems, notions and quiet truths about love, safety, identity and becoming. It speaks to the moments when we are trying to let go, understand ourselves and find our way back to what feels true.

Author's Note
I wrote this book from the space between memory and becoming. It carries pieces of Iraq, America, displacement, faith, love and the search for a place that feels like home.

NEW DIGITAL RELEASE
Moonlit Letters
Between Stillness and Stars
Moonlit Letters is an illustrated collection of five poems about solitude, longing, and the love we have yet to meet. It speaks to the quiet moments when we’re learning to enjoy our own company, follow our own roads, and still leave room for someone to share the view.
Author's Note
These poems began with a quiet night and the moon overhead. They hold the thoughts that come when life slows down: wondering who might be looking up too, finding peace in the present, and trusting that we can keep living fully without knowing how every story ends.
