I'm an Atlanta-based, Mississippi writer with a passionate ambition to tell great stories. The themes I like to explore in my work include how we can be our own worst nightmare brought to life, how relationships can give us wings only to take us too close to the sun, and how society twists the knife in our souls. My pieces tend to be very personal and empathetic in nature - I like to pull from arguments I've had with loved ones and the arguments I have with myself in the bath after dwelling on something for too long. I also strive to have an authentic voice in all of my work specifically in creating believable dialogue. I also have a strange tendency to have a Southern Gothic flair to my work, but I think that comes from my love for Tennessee Williams and all the years I lived in Mississippi.
Currently, I have two published pieces with Product Literary Magazine (Picture Perfect and The Porter's Choice) and am working towards more pieces I hope to share with you soon!
