About the Author

I’m a Black woman writer in love with the unexpected shape of words. I write haiku poems (non traditional ones) that break rules on purpose, stretch silence, and hold whole stories in a few lines. My work lives at the intersection of culture, identity, and experimentation, where being a Black female poet means redefining what “form” is allowed to be.
I’m a spoken word poet who drops bold truth using ink. No drop wasted as thinking is the goal. I bring the enemy of your thoughts to dinner and invite compromise to join us.
