Stories From a Chef, Writer, and Survivor Learning to Live on Borrowed Breath.

Welcome to my corner of the internet—part kitchen, part confessional, all heart.

In Kitchen To Quill: Chronic Truths, I share unfiltered stories about life with chronic illness—equal parts humor, exhaustion, and survival. The “Still Breathing Against Odds” Podcast brings those truths to life with real conversations about resilience, creativity, and the strange beauty of living with a body that doesn’t always cooperate. You’ll find Short Stories that blur the line between fiction and memory, and Mini Memoirs that capture small but defining moments of life, love, and loss. Photography offers quiet pauses and visual reflections, while Reviews and Interviews shine a light on books, products, and creators who inspire me. If you’d like to say hello or share your own story, stop by Contact—and if you’re new here, About Me is the best place to start.
