Author bio

Being born with a mild case of Spineabifida lead me to having low-self-esteem and learning difficulties. In addition, I experienced a serious of turbulent relationships, My first book, Heaven Under Construction, is a poetic documentation of my dark journey through chemotherapy, radiation, and a double mastectomy. Even though life has not been easy, it has lent me many opportunities to ponder life's big questions, which is often reflected in my writing. My main goal as an author is to compile complex concepts and boil them down into simple, easy-to-digest formats of how to rise from lower states in life to our highest.
