Keynotes/Poetry Readings
Inspire, Impact, and Transform through Words
Do you believe in the power of words to inspire change? As a seasoned poet and speaker, I offer engaging poetry readings and thought-provoking lectures on a range of topics:
- First-gen Higher Ed Academic Journey
- Surviving sexual trauma
- Surviving poverty and food instability
- Writing as medicine
- Writing as a strategy to establish DEI and belonging
I deliver a powerful and poetic experience that guides audience members to recommit to their own creative spirit. They leave with strategies on how writing can heal trauma, and strengthen cultural competency. I have had the privilege of inspiring high school students to utilize writing as a healing tool for their personal traumas, guiding college freshmen past procrastination and towards producing exceptional writing, and collaborating with interfaith and higher education leaders to develop effective writing methodologies for students who have survived sexual assault on college campuses.
If you represent a student services department in higher education, a woman's/LGBTQ+ resource center, or a faith-based organization seeking a speaker for your next event, I invite you to contact me. I am also available as a visiting poet for various occasions.
Together, let's embark on a transformative journey of words and creativity. Set up your free consultation today.
Creative Workshops
Unleash Your Artistic Spirit and Embrace Your Authentic Voice
Discover the power of your creativity through immersive and empowering workshops. Rooted in a culturally responsive pedagogy centered on the principles of validation, affirmation, building, and bridging, my workshops create a safe space where your imagination can flourish. Together, we will explore generative writing exercises that transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, uncovering the symbolism that fuels our creative works. Additionally, I offer reflective writing workshops designed to help survivors of sexual assault harness the healing power of writing.
In these workshops, you will:
- Empower your artistic spirit

- Make peace with your body

Mat to Pen: A Yin Yoga Writing Masterclass
Are you looking for a space to reflect and shake out all the noise in your head? Are you tired of carrying around grief like it was your only friend or a lover you couldn’t kick out of bed? Come to the mat with me.
Mat to Pen is a Yin Yoga Writing Masterclass that aligns asana and reflective journal writing to help us move from places of sorrow to spaces of joy. It is based in yogic philosophy, neuroplasticity, and creativity. You do not need yoga experience, to partake. The practice will be an invitation for you to make friends with stillness, to explore some deeper questions about your relationship to and aversion of grief and joy, and to remain in a few poses for a series of breaths.
