Hey there!
Let’s make this fun…
Here’s the story of me,
one question at a time.
Remember those email surveys we all passed around to our friends (and enemies) back in the day so that we could avoid seven years bad luck? This is like that—because a traditional About Me page feels way too stiff.
The Short Version of Me: Creativity-obsessed and always working on the next thing. I believe in strong words, messy drafts, and making things happen—without waiting for permission. You’ll usually find me with a notebook, a black coffee, and a half-finished idea.
Location: Based in Tulsa, but my creative energy is at large and roaming.
Occupation: I wear many hats: writer, creativity coach, podcast host, content marketer, teaching artist, and yoga teacher. I’ve also got some exciting things in the works for 2025. Basically, I help people get unstuck and create boldly.
Describe Yourself in Three Words: Grounded, rebellious, and messy.
Biggest Creative Influence: Nothing inspires me more than a deadline. But a messy desk, a strong drink, and an open notebook are my mainstays.
Current Obsession: Unfucking my approach to creativity—and thinking about how movement and creativity work together.
First Thing I Do Every Morning: Open the blinds, give Joan Didion (my cat) some good-girl treats, pour coffee, and write.
Favorite Excuse to Not Write Today: “My coffee hasn’t kicked in.”
Most Likely to Be Found: Writing essays, thinking about creativity, and sipping something strong.
Signature Drink: I wish I had a signature drink! Sometimes it’s wine, sometimes bourbon, or a martini. But it’s always black coffee in the morning.
What’s On My Desk Right Now: I rarely work at my desk, so it’s pretty clean. My ottoman, though? Stacked with printed pages, books, notebooks, too many pens to count, and cat toys.
Fun Fact: At the end of the bar exam, the booklet said, “If you finish early, go back and check your work.” I wrote, “Don’t tell me what to do”—and I’ve never looked back.
Favorite Part of My Job: Helping writers embrace the mess and create boldly—whether through workshops, yoga, or 1:1 coaching.
