If you’re moving through a life change, big or small, creativity can become either anchor or shelter. Both are valid.

💬 Has a life season ever changed how you create?

personal, full of longing and possibility. The sci-fi is just the doorway; the heart is what walks through.

💬 If you could visit any moment—not to change it, just to witness it—where would you go?

shared glances, walks, small fears, and big comfort.

Writing dogs helps me write tenderness. They remind me what connection feels like without words.

💬 Do you have an animal who’s shaped your life?

fear. Worlds that challenge without overwhelming.

I write these stories because I think people deserve sci-fi that lets them breathe. Not everything has to be dystopian. Not every future has to hurt.

💬 What kind of future do you wish more sci-fi explored?

characters don’t notice. Maybe that’s why I’m drawn to them—they remind us that life’s meaning often hides in the ordinary.

If you’ve ever kept something “silly” just because it holds a feeling, you’ll understand these stories.

💬 Do you have an everyday object you’d never part with?

pause and grow. I wanted to explore closure without harshness, and create sci-fi that lands gently, even when the themes are big.
