I love celebrating Lawrencians and all of our local creative community—artists, authors, musicians, movie makers, stewards of the land, farmers, chefs and more!

I aspire to be an author of creative nonfiction, remain humble, grounded, evolving and learning while appreciating many perspectives and following in the shadow of greatness!

My favorite authors include: Denise Low, J. Drew Lanham, Barbara Kingsolver, Langston Hughes, Annette Hope Billings, Lauret Savoy, George Frazier, Ken Lassman, Justine Saracen, Zadie Smith, Angélique Kidjo, Trevor Noah, J.M. Redmann, Ellen Hart, Sara Paretsky, Jacqueline Winspear, Lindsey Yankey, Stephen T. Johnson, …
