ARTIST STATEMENT
As a writer and poet I have always used words to express myself. I am trying a different medium to reach new people and learn fresh and exciting things.
My work is personal and mostly deals with mental illness. As someone who has struggled with bipolar disorder since childhood, I do my best to bring about awareness and change the views and stigma that are attached to it.
Louder

And they’ll never know
if the explosion of the gun or
Silence on the other end of the line was louder
Pieces
What if I’m not crazy
But simply a reflection of
what was done to me when
I was too young to fight
Too scared to tell
but instead split
into these pieces
you now diagnose
but will never make whole
