“I absolutely loved Jessica’s workshop, it was a totally no pressure, relaxing introduction to poetry for me. She is like the good Martha Stewart of mindfulness, she thinks of everything, makes sure everyone is comfortable, and makes the day informative and wonderful.”

“This workshop gave me an opportunity to take time for myself in a way that never seems possible in my busy life. By getting ‘me time’ on the calendar, it helps me follow through on making self-reflection a priority.”

“Jessica's workshops are so powerful for self-exploration! Her use of writing prompts and personal storytelling are an invitation to explore one’s own stories, and set the stage for developing a wonderful practice of self-care.”

Hi, I'm Jessica

As a writer, author, and teacher, I'm passionate about using personal storytelling, poetry, and prose to invite you deeper into yourself, and the beauty of everyday life. 

My Life in Moments: A Poetic Memoir is my first book but not my last. This workshop is designed to help you write a mini poetic memoir of your own.

Yay! I look forward to seeing you on May 22…
