Education Experience
Stephen F. Austin State University, 2019, Bachelor of Fine Arts, Literature
Published writing at Rigorous Magazine and Humid Journal
After my favorite musical artist tragically lost his life, it deeply affected me because he was a man who cared for the improvement of the community and the human race as a whole. As I sat in my room and came to grips with the loss of his life, it made me question my mortality, which motivated me to do more to dedicate my life to the betterment of the human race. The poem "Fear" deals with fear, grief, and loss. For Humid Journal, I contributed to a chapbook collection that raised funds for the wildfires in California in 2020.
