A multilingual writer and writing teacher living in Munich, Germany. I am a Story is a State of Mind teacher and ambassador and the founder and workshop leader of the group Creative Writing in Munich. I write poetry, fiction, and non-fiction. My work has been published in English, German, and Romania in a large number of venues since 2004 and has been distinguished with various awards. I believe in the power of collaborations across disciplines and of storytelling in redefining our overrehearsed self-narratives.
