I never wanted to be a writer. When I was a little girl I wanted to be a Supreme Court judge. I had a deep desire to see justice in this world and I viewed judges as wise counselors whose job it was to uphold the morals of humanity, to give a voice to the voiceless and when two people just couldn’t agree on something, to mediate and bring peace and harmony.
But early on, I discovered that my destiny didn’t involve a bench or a robe and that my natural strength lies in communicating ideas and concepts. As a designer, I use images. As a marketer, words. I am now using my skills to start a dialogue about what matters most to me: understanding ourselves as we come to know God. I am picking up where religion has left off, by sharing my own personal experiences and anecdotes to remind us of the valuable lessons and stories we still need to hear.
That desire for justice I had as a child remains the same: to uphold the morals of humanity, to help others speak their truth, and find peace. Turns out, it’s an inside job.
