Creative Work
A collection of my poetry and short stories crafted for both my own personal pleasures, but also for courses taken throughout my undergrad! Pieces created for course credits were done so with the purpose of expressing a message that I found would be best articulated in prose, rhyme, and metre, rather academic jargon. I hope these pieces are found to be just as enjoyable and thought provoking as an essay!
