Writing is like sculpting: the image is trapped inside the medium, and it's your job to help it find its way out. Editing writing is like ironing fabric, with each pass smoothing out the wrinkles. In the end, you're left with something ready to face the world.

We are all a series of stories, each with their own truths. I am eager to share these truths, be they my own or someone else's, and empower readers through a variety of mediums.
