I am a Dallas-based writer, editor, and divorced mother of two sons—one who died suddenly at 26. I write from lived experience at the intersection of grief, love, and survival to help others navigating this liminal space of profound loss feel less alone. My essays and poetry have appeared in literary journals and magazines, including Candlelight Magazine, Forevermore, Months to Years, and Root Smoke. I contributed to The Spirituality of Grief by Fran Tilton Shelton and was the ghostwriter for Healing Heart to Soul by Dr. Peter Rappa. I publish on Substack (Grief Matters) and FaithandGrief.org.
