She is the blog editor for Humankind Zine andher writings have been featured in the likes of Homegrown Zine, Sumou Mag, and herlocal arts paper, FSM. She is a lifelong daydreamer, vintage, and music enthusiast.When she's not writing you can find her drinking coffee, baking, or obsessing over herpets.Her silky white dress. The eyelash on her cheek.

Yet still gentle upon him, they were unlike anyhe’d ever felt. He spun her around in circles, they danced around his living room.
