the Writer
Words have been my way of navigating the world for as long as I can remember.
My pen bends towards human-interest subjects that have included acclaimed visual artists, activists, fashion designers, chefs, interior designers and architects, wellness leaders, and entrepreneurs. My philosophy regarding story-telling is that through language and publishing, we can achieve equity in our communities.
It is why I work mostly with under-represented voices, including female founders and BIPOC, to bring their stories, voices, art, and perspectives to the forefront. From film photographers in Oaxaca, Mexico capturing the macabre during the Day of the Dead to female Indigenous activists who are fighting climate change, I continue to prioritize progressive creators through my storytelling.
Liv Communications is my copy + content writing business where I manage and execute all operations for my clients who range from start-up companies to independent creators, including female-founded companies and self-taught artists.
the Traveler
What began as my solo sojourn to South America in 2019 would eventually lead me to my new home in Costa Rica…
where my soles have been planted for the past 3 years in the clay soil of the Southern Caribbean.
I was bound for a life abroad. Not just to another country but to another way of life. Latin America has always been a place of curiosity for me, whose borders kissed my own country in the United States yet felt like a stranger beyond. From reading about Che Guevara’s rebellious, unconventional journey in the pages of The Motorcycle Diaries to gnawing through the Spanish epic of Don Quixote, I was drawn to both the language and cultures I had a taste of in the classroom.
My inquiries have taken me across the vastness of Mexico as far south as the Peruvian Andes where I have touched down on stories that I once longed for. I have learned my most valuable lessons of safety as a solo traveler in the throes of civil unrest in the capital of Quito, I have encountered spirit in a woman from Cusco who ran a makeshift bodega on the outskirts of the gentrified city center, and I saw the reality of my privilege weighed adjacent to Indigenous youth and Venezuelan refugees who held an unshakeable resilience. My work, my writing, and my philosophy have all been shaped by the land and the lives I have encountered.
Travel was my lure to the unknown, while writing remains my anchor.
