Hello! I’m Jen. I'm a writer, artist, mom, wife, consciousness explorer, and autoethnographer, though none of these quite capture the wild, spiraling path I’ve taken to get to who I am today. I was born a Miracle Baby, raised in the rubble of generational trauma, and shaped by chronic illness, disability, queer becoming, caregiving, and the relentless pull toward reclaiming wholeness.
My life has never been linear. It’s been cyclical, cellular, and strange, more like a house with collapsing rooms and unexpected doorways than a straight road. Through it all, I’ve carried many selves. Not fractured, but multiple. Not broken, just vast.
My first memoir, The Alchemy of Being a House, is the story of how I found a way to live inside my selves. It’s about intergenerational pain and hard-won love. About the voice that protected me when no one else could. And what changed when I stopped trying to be one thing, and became a home for all of it.
I live by a lake in Florida with my wife, our magical daughter, and our pack of rescue dogs. These days, I’m living from the inside out—wild, whole, and unhidden.
