Poetry is a home, and my hope is that we can see poems as a way of finding home after wandering for so long. Come for the poetry. Stay for humanity.
I am a poet, professor, and speaker writing about Black, Afrolatine, and Afroindigenous ecological memory from a matrilineal lens. In this community, we value humanity, generative writing prompts, and what our mothers whisper to us.
I write about the quiet, complicated, and often contradictory parts of lifeโbelonging, home, and becoming a parent. This space is where I share honest personal reflections and moments that donโt always make it into a casual conversation.
