    HOW PUNK MAKES ME A BETTER WRITER

    Growing up near Cleveland, Ohio gives me a predisposition for things of a darker matter. Home to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, a river that once caught fire in the 60s, and six-month winters, Northeast Ohio breeds into its people a certain kind of grit and tenacity. It’s no wonder then that I gravitated toward the likes of punk, metal, garage rock, and similar genres. It’s a musical camp I fall back on often when I write (both poetry and copywriting).

    LEAN INTO YOUR OWN TIMELINE

    Welcome to my blog! For this first post, I want to talk about what I mean when I say "leaning into your own timeline." Over the course of the last few years, I've developed a sense of complacency that I've only recently understood how to navigate. There's a bit of shame in admitting this but it's one of those sharp truths a person has to live up to. After graduating in 2013, I kept looking for that same dreamer mentality toward personal development I'd gained from having a co
