Just passed 2000 followers on Instagram! Thank you SO much. Feeling very humbled and hope my words help you and heal you. Last year, my poem "Haunting" received the most likes, so thought I'd share it again for new followers who might have missed it. Thank you for being here.

Haven't made it to many events, but I have still been writing, and am honoured to have some of my work included in these 4 publications. Will along to more open mics in later this year, so if anyone is looking for a spoken word feature in the mental health space, hit me up! 🙏
