This page holds stories shaped by lived experience and transformed through imagination. Some moments are real, others are reimagined, but each piece is rooted in truth—emotional truth, human truth, the kind that reveals itself most clearly through narrative. These stories explore beauty, heartbreak, connection, longing, resilience, and the quiet freedoms we discover within ourselves. Through fiction, I make sense of what life gives, what it takes, and what it leaves behind.
