I am a dreamer. A creator. A maker. An artist.   Across various media, my imagination spills out in all directions. I don’t follow a singular style — my work is creativity, unleashed and untethered. My influences come from many places and times. I was raised in a house full of fantasy and wonder, where my parents nurtured my talents and encouraged my curiosity.   Creating, for me, is a form of communication — a way to express the thoughts and pieces of my soul that defy clear definition.   A little about me: I’m visually impaired, living with an incurable degenerative condition called Retinitis Pigmentosa. Despite its challenges, I find joy every day — often with my two massive Labrador Retrievers by my side.   I’m a devoted foodie and an avid reader, forever exploring new worlds through flavor and fiction. I’m happily married, a passionate Dungeon Master, and a keeper of crafts — always seeking new adventures in both fantasy and life.   Here on World Anvil, I’m building worlds where darkness blooms and light flickers through cracks in old myths. My stories lean toward emotional slow burns, divine entanglements, and characters shaped by grief, wonder, and desire.   Come explore the realms I dream. There’s magic waiting in the margins.
