I have been writing ever since I could pick up a pencil. It is my way to explore the depths of my emotions and to process all my big feelings. I have written hundreds of stories for publications like Wondermind, Cosmopolitan, Elite Daily, Yahoo, and more on topics like mental health, wellness, sex & relationships, personal narratives and more. Scroll below for an assortment of my work.
