I am a 24 year old female from wisconsin. I was born in chicago IL. I am the oldest of 6 children, having two sisters and three brothers. Life wasn't the best for me growing up I grew up fast becoming a mother figure along with older sister to my younger brothers snd sisters. Things did get better as the years went on. I currently work in one of the hospitals here in Milwaukee and enrolled in nursing school. I have been writing for about seven or eight years. I use writing as a way to express myself through words. I think one of my major influences would be the writings of Maya Angelou the way she uses her words to write. I think that for me writing is a way to escape from the world around including work and school. It takes me into a whole nother place where I am just able to express the way I feel without anyone having to judge me. I feel that most people need that and I would just like to share some of my feelings with people cause we all face similar situations and just feel like escaping.

I am currently working on a book of poetry and also a fiction book.
