The Art of Storytelling


Each story has value, whether expressed in an article, a poem, a song, a photograph or a film. As a Midwestern-raised writer and musician now living in Nashville, Tenn., I am passionate about collecting and sharing stories. Join my journey through this blog and portfolio as I reflect on the art of writing and living with vision, passion and purpose.
