WRITING WITH ⤑ the body, print, digital



     Photo by Charlotte Ghomeshi




Moving between writing, publishing, and participatory readings, my work explores embodied encounters with language, memory, and knowledge in space. Drawing on contemplative practices and nightly dreams, I consider how attention and storytelling shape the processes of attuning to the ungraspable forms of knowledge within and around us.

I initiated ONEIRIC SPACE, an experimental research and publishing project that reflects on the porous boundaries between dreams and waking life. 

I also work as a freelance editorial consultant offering content writing and strategy services to brands, institutions, and agencies.

Originally from Toronto, I currently live and work in Berlin.
