I am an anthropologist and writer working at the intersection of literary fiction, folklore, and lived experience, where stories become a way of making sense of the world.​

My stories are woven from the subtle threads of daily life, exploring the quiet surrealities where magic has consequences and culture reveals itself in kitchens, friendships, and the smallest of gestures rather than in grand speeches.​

My background in anthropology sharpens my focus on how people inhabit their stories—not just what they claim to believe, but how they move through the world, shaped by rituals, habits, and unspoken rules.
