I took a trip to nyc this summer and the pigeons there always caught my eye. There was a part of me that felt bad for them. There was also a part of me that felt a lil jealous. One day I hope to know what they know, but for now I’ll just write poetry.

Mark your calendars!! Next one is September 17th!

We got snacks, we got vibes. We also got poetry prompts and writing materials if you want to write something on the spot!

You do not have to “be” a poet to perform, just bring your authentic humanity (and your friends).

This is what building community is all about. Face-to-face. Talent and passion. Art. And it all happens here, in the basement of a bookstore - Curious Squirrel Bookshop

Zionsville, Indianapolis, Carmel… I’m looking at you!

Legend has it The Green Mill is the birthplace of slam poetry in the US. This felt like a movie moment, what an awesome crowd, what an awesome host.

Traveling for the purpose of poetry is such a joy and privilege. This was about a month ago and now that I’m deep in my textbooks in law school, I love watching back the vibrancy that unfolded this summer.

First year of law school is upon us 😤 normally when you think “poet” you don’t think “lawyer,” and I hope I challenge that notion in your mind. I am excited to enhance my values in poetry, the arts, and public service through this law degree - contributing to the pool of real change in our community.

I am excited to document this journey, its struggles and its wisdom. And know that if you are experiencing impostor syndrome, keep close to you the arts. There is nothing more real than authentic humanity.

August open mic is here!! Pull up to Curious Squirrel Bookshop Aug 20 (& every third Thursday of the month) for live poetry.

If you’ve never shared poetry in the basement of a bookstore before, it’s time to change that 🙂‍↕️ No experience necessary, just authentic humanity. Bring your friends!

Things in NYC that made me want to write a poem 07/29-08/05

On this trip, 08/04 marked three years since my brother’s death. I felt so seen by the pigeons here. The moon. The empty spaces filled with kinetic energy. The humor. The anger. What a time.

Ever other week, The Love Jones Cafe opens the floor to poets to share their writing, this one is about how my sisters-in-life taught how to fight “like a girl.” This poem is one of my favs. Thank you to the The Love Jones Cafe for building community at World Famous HOTBOYS in Carmel.
