Reading, Writing, Cooking, Research

I am an accomplished cook with a strong interest in nutrition as I believe that it holds the basis for ongoing holistic self-care. I document all personal experience and have written 30 short stories which are being compiled into a recovery based work of non-fiction extracted from lived experience. I believe in the possibility of complete recovery of all people affected by addiction and trauma and use research to consolidate this belief.
