I am and have always been a writer. Writing has always been an outlet for me and a way to cope with difficult situations and strong emotions. I am a college student majoring in journalism and minoring in Spanish, and trying the best I can to expose myself to all the possibilities of my youth. I ran away when I was 16 as a result of an unstable living environment and have been trying to find myself ever since. I often write about my past, especially the depth of instability, because I feel it has shaped the woman I am today. All the obstacles I have faced have brought me to where I am now, and I feel that by writing about my experiences, I can potentially help others who also feel trapped by toxicity around them. The most important thing to me is living a life I could be proud of, to enjoy the simple things and amplify the wildness of the world as best as I can.
