HEY THERE. I’M HOPE.

“WORDS ARE HARD.”

You’re damn right, they are. I wrestle with them every day. I try to place them in the right spot, polish and shine them until they catch someone’s eye, and drive red lines through them until you can’t even tell what they initially spelled. Yeah, they’re hard.

I love them anyway. And I’ve loved them ever since I knew how to use them. I carved them into my mom’s black granite sink top in the ‘90s, and today, I use them to sell products, tell stories and create an escape (for myself and others).

If you’re here, you’re visiting to see my work and writing. Maybe together we can tell a story of our own, or I can help you tell yours.
