I’m not a therapist, a philosopher, or an academic. I’m simply someone who feels things deeply and tries to make sense of them through words. Writing, for me, is a form of reaching. A quiet attempt to touch another mind across the distance.

Tightrope High is that place of balance, somewhere between meaning and madness, beauty and ache, love and impermanence. It’s where I try to translate the rawness of being human into something honest enough to move us, even if only for a moment.

I don’t write to instruct or to fix. I write to accompany and to sit beside whoever might be reading and whisper, “me too.”
If these essays make even one person pause a heartbeat longer, breathe a little deeper, or feel a little less alone, then the work has already done what it was meant to do.

This isn’t expertise.
It’s participation in being alive.
