The world is filled with stories. I am made to tell them. Funny, painful, heroic, they're based in reality but forged in creativity. 

I have always been in love with stories. As a child, I would beg for one more bedroom story every night. My favorites were the ones my mother would make up, specially for me. Not from any book, they featured the "shape people" and strange animals. As I grew, I began to notice the narrative in the every day, and became intrigued by the storylines in the simple living around me. Later, as I became more aware of my anxiety, I found that documenting moments of embarrassment or confusion was something close to therapy for me. Here, I've created a space for both self-deprecating humor, thoughtful commentary as well as professional editorial work as well as a place to explore what it means to be alive today.
