personal essays,

There was something about trees.
My discovery started when I was fifteen and wrote a poem, “To A Tree,” and realized I had a place in this world. Self-discovery, and connection to the natural world became central to my writing of memoir and fiction. From the tops of the trees to the bottoms at their roots, and as the seasons evolve in our lives, there is a circular connection, where we can learn about ourselves in finding our places. Trees became a metaphor for living, a guiding symbol for finding home, and the beginning for my story.
