My work is marked by where I came from: I lived for many years believing I was irreparable, both wounded and wounding, trapped in patterns I didn’t know how to escape, believing damage was permanent and my identity was fixed to my wounds, as if I was my trauma, as if change were impossible.

I see now how deeply that belief is taught, often indirectly, sometimes without even using words. Many carry it silently. I aim to shatter that lie with radical openness.
