My published works show an early interest in human development, a fascination with desire/motivations, an outsider’s view of the world, a desire for belonging.

Narratives and lives are defined by questions and desire. Noticing, observing, questioning, embodying, practicing: these are verbs of intellectual and heart engagement. The makings of a rich life.

We can speak our own truth and amplify the truths of others. We can read their stories, write about the impact their stories have had on our lives. We can point to the human connection over and over. We can help each other. Isn’t that cool? It can be inter-generational. We can help the generations after us and the ones before us by connecting through self-expression and, preferably, in a circle. We can drop all of the narratives and, simply, be present.
