I am a writer and applied mathematician. I am an introvert who loves writing and sharing my words with the world. Poetry saved my life on so many different occasions so I know that words are incredibly powerful. I just want to be a source of light in this very dark world. The Introvert’s Escape Maneuver is my way of navigating life. Free-Thinking Fridays are the creative's playground. I post poems, think pieces and prose. Self-Love Sundays are when I post motivational pieces about life and the practical applications of Self-Love.

Untitled Poem-1/12/15

When I was younger, I used to find myself writing beautiful poems about boys who didn’t deserve them. It took me years to realize that I deserved the same amount of energy and attention that I was giving to those who didn’t know how to reciprocate it.

I Cannot Save the World

This Self-Love Sunday I wanted to share an experience I’m still working to fully understand. All I know for sure is, I can’t save the world.

Dear Mom,

An open letter to my first and only role model. I wrote this for no other reason than to express my gratitude for her love for me.

Self-Love is Difficult

I’m taking this journey one step at a time. This week made me realize that Self-Love is difficult.

Healing

Healing is a decision. It is an extremely involved and intentional process, but it’s necessary for growth and a healthy life. Decide to heal today, you deserve it.
