Writing

I love stories - whether it's writing them or reading them. There's something that happens to our souls when we read a beautifully written story. As a writer, my goal is always to connect to the reader's soul - whether be it in a funny and goofy way, or deep, emotional and reflective way. Our stories make us human, and I do hope the things I write are to remind us of our humanity.

Hiking

Every once in a while, I like getting out in Nature - see the views from a mountain top, follow trails to a waterfall, and maybe even dive in.
