writer | speaker | humanitarian

I spent close to two decades working at the crossroads of the government and humanitarian sectors, bearing witness to others' stories. But never once in all those years did I stop to consider that the story I needed to witness most of all was my own. Now I write, create, and work alongside people in mission-driven spaces who are coming to terms with the costs of service and learning to tend to themselves as carefully as they tend to others. I document stories that live in the space between trauma and healing, seen and unseen, and Tell Me My Story is where that work began.
