Describe yourself in 3 words…

Creative, Quirky, and Friendly.

What inspires you?

The world around me, my friends and family, speaking to other creatives and seeing their amazing
work and perspectives, music, and my younger self.

Tell us about your worst ever gig?

Honestly, I don’t think I’ve had one. I may get a little weak in the knees, and my hands may shake,
but nerves are normal and can be overcome with more practice!

What’s your number one poetry pet peeve?

I’ve been trying to think but I don’t think I have one… I feel like with poetry, it’s nice to just take in the words of others.

Whose words do you love at the moment?

I recently went to a show and I have to say Terrell The Artist, he was great. Not poetry related, but Matt Haig, I read one of his books and really connected with the words in the story. It actually inspired a piece I wrote not too long ago.

What piece of advice would you give to your younger self?

To keep going, keep believing in yourself and don’t let the world around you discourage you from
trying and showing up as YOU. Everything works itself out in the end! (Sometimes slowly but always surely) Also, to share your work, girl don’t be afraid (valid even now – but I’m self aware on that).

Which two companies would you like to be sponsored by and why?

Oooo, I would definitely have to say Intax. I’m an instant camera lover ( if you know me, you know!) I take that camera EVERYWHERE, it’s the photographer in me, so it would only be right to be
sponsored by them and to be able to share amazing memories and stories.

The other company I’d love to be sponsored by is Wingstop lool I’ve just always envisioned myself
hosting an event and Wingstop sponsoring it. It will happen all in good time! Plus their ranch j’adore <3
