When life gets complicated, the best way I’ve found to understand it again is to write – usually while drinking coffee.

I’ve been doing this since I was a little kid (the writing – not the coffee).

If I’m not writing about whatever has most recently made my brain tingle, I’m probably reading, singing or socialising. I eat a plant based diet, I hike, I lift, I yoga, I consider myself a minimalist, a philosopher-in-training, a free thinking, a walking contradiction, a perpetual student and a life enthusiast.

A creative at heart, I really just love words and what they can do when you arrange them in a certain way – give hope, bring them laughter, inform, inspire, challenge, educate, heal – and so much more.
