I am a multi-faceted individual who wears several hats in the world of social impact. I am an author, social entrepreneur, and human rights activist.
As an author, I have dedicated my creative energy to penning thought-provoking works that delve into the complexities of our society. Through my writings, I strive to shed light on pressing social issues and inspire positive change. I believe in the power of storytelling to ignite empathy, spark conversations, and encourage readers to take action.
In addition to my work as an author, I am deeply involved in the world of social entrepreneurship. I am passionate about using entrepreneurial strategies and innovative thinking to address social and environmental challenges. Through my initiatives, I aim to create sustainable solutions that positively impact communities, particularly those marginalized or disadvantaged.
As a human rights activist, I advocate for the inherent dignity and equal rights of all individuals. I firmly believe that every person deserves to live a life free from discrimination, oppression, and injustice. Whether through grassroots organizing, awareness campaigns, or policy advocacy, I am dedicated to advancing human rights and fostering a more equitable and inclusive society.
By combining my roles as an author, social entrepreneur, and human rights activist, I strive to contribute to positive social change on multiple fronts. Together, let us work towards building a world where everyone can thrive, where compassion and justice prevail, and where every voice is heard.

Mother, Father, be kind to me today.
Mother, Father, be gentle now I pray.
Mother, Father, please love me just for today.
I am still praying for that day.
As an abuse survivor, I have fooled around with highly emotive poetry, journaling and short stories. Writing is my weapon of choice to chase the demons of my past away. I suffer from C-PSTD and chronic depression. I have been through, tried and walked away from so many therapies. They did not fit... or I thought I was better and walked away to relapse again... Spiraling deeper into depression each time.
I had been trying to write the story of my life for over 20 years but I was too angry for it to be nothing but pure vitriol and anger. But with my treatment I was finally able to write my memoir the way it needed to be told.
Here's the rub, no treatment is perfect, the human mind does not work that way. I still have bad days, I still occasionally wake up silently screaming... But it is so much better than before. I am married to the love of my life, I live in Australia now and I am getting better every day. Please join me in my message of hope.
