Discover the power of poetry with me!
Poetry can make a real difference in people’s lives—it allows people to describe their struggles and joys in a truly unique way. Writing poetry equips people with many tools for self-expression, and I am always thrilled when, as we study the inner workings and craft of a poem together, I see someone find their voice.
“[T]here was one thing that truly changed my entire perspective on poetry: when you said, ‘There is no such thing as bad poetry.’”
— R., who studied poetry with me in 2024
Let me bring you a new perspective on poetry.
