Inspired

I.N.S.P.I.R.E.D. showcases and explores the last ten years of my life's experiences and creative works through the focused lens of poetry and short stories. The title of this collection, of course, has a dual meaning. I not only felt inspiration to share these pieces but it is also the acronym within I.N.S.P.I.R.E.D that birthed this project. This special decade of reflection is examined through my own creative tools of introspection, narrative, symbolism, perspective, imagination, reflection, entertainment, and documentation. I am thrilled to share this wide spectrum of work that encompasses the journey of fictional tale, cultural identity, spiritual reflection, social justice, the essence of community and other significant elements. I hope this inspires you as well.
