Poet. Bridge-builder.
Storyteller.

Whether you came with intention or just happened to find this space, welcome. This isn’t just a website — it’s a place to breathe, reflect, and remember you’re not alone.

​

I’m a poet

Not because I have all the right words, but because I can’t help but put language to the beauty and ache that comes with being alive. My writing is rooted in faith, formed through lived experience, and shaped by the quiet conviction that God is still near—even in the in-between.

​

I’m a bridge-builder 

I am drawn to the spaces and people that often get overlooked: between cultures, between joy and sorrow, between the Church and the world outside its walls. I believe art, hospitality, and presence can create sacred ground. And I long to see people connected to God, to one another, and to the truth of who they are.

​

I’m a storyteller

I believe that when we speak honestly, healing begins. That our testimonies, even the ones still unfolding, can become someone else’s reminder that they’re not forgotten.

I don’t claim to have it all figured out - far from it. But I hope inviting you into my story, you will feel more seen, known, and loved. So come as you are. There’s room here for your questions, your wonder, your grief, and your hope.
 

Let’s walk this road together — word by word, story by story.

Creativity Meets Calling

It wasn’t until I began my own journey of healing that I truly learned how to care for others. Through the kindness of a friend, I was welcomed into a church home, and in that sacred space, I encountered Christ and surrendered my life to Him.

 
That moment didn’t just change my story — it revealed my calling.

 

I became deeply burdened to see churches become what they were always meant to be: not places of performance, but places of healing. Spaces where the sick, the searching, and the silenced can come and be made whole.

​

Over the years, my path has taken me through various sectors, including nonprofits, global research initiatives, real estate finance, consulting, and ministry. Each step, though seemingly different, had a common thread: creating space. I’ve helped build community, facilitated hard and healing conversations, and walked alongside others as they untangled identity and reimagined belonging. Especially among those who’ve felt unseen or misunderstood, I’ve found God waiting, ready to restore and reconcile.​ Out of these experiences, and the tension between longing and hope, United Not Uniform was born.

 

United Not Uniform is my “yes” to the call of Christ: to help bridge the gap between the Church and those on the margins, to celebrate difference without sacrificing unity, and to cultivate spaces where art, story, and the Holy Spirit collide.

I am both amazed and honored to steward this vision — to make space for healing, for creating, for belonging, and for drawing near to the God who makes all things new.”

Wonder With Me

United Not Uniform was born from a personal story of healing — and it’s still becoming.

This ministry is not a finished product.

 

It’s a growing, breathing space where creativity meets calling, and where

God continues to shape what’s next.

 

As we build, we invite you to wonder with us. What might healing look like in your story?
Where is God creating beauty out of brokenness? How could community look different — more whole, more honest, more human?

​

We’re dreaming of gatherings that don’t fit the mold. Resources that speak to the heart. Art that stirs the soul. Conversations that move us toward deeper connection with God and each other. There’s room here for your questions, your gifts, your story.

We seek to equip and empower creatives to become a bridge and share the gospel

United Not Uniform is dedicated to bridging the gap between the church and creatives, fostering a community that embraces diversity while maintaining unity in faith.
