Conversations
Poetry begins with attention — to the world around us, to the stories we carry, and to the questions we are still learning how to ask.
I believe poetry is a shared practice. It invites us to slow down, listen deeply, and discover language for what we have not yet been able to name.
Through readings, gatherings, and conversations, I bring poetry into community spaces as an invitation: to reflect, to connect, and to explore together what it means to be human.
Whether poetry has been part of your life for years or you have never considered yourself a poetry reader, there is a place for you here.
I work with students
Poetry offers a medium for students to explore their creativity, imagination, and intellectual curiosity. Poetry is a catalyst for learning core academic subjects, accelerating emotional development and supporting personal growth. I believe that students who express themselves through poetry become adults who bring compassion, understanding and appreciation to their communities.
I work with adults
At the core of poetry, is a deep desire to understand our world and the lives we are living. I enjoy working with adults in both retreat and workshop settings to see how poetry enables deep investigation and map-making.
