"I entitled the collection "Risen Among Wisdom" because writing these poems have helped me rise above everything that was going on around me and to find within it wisdom to survive and grow.  My life has not been an easy one, but learning to express myself in poetry as a means of "telling my story" has helped me.  It is my hope to encourage others by reading my story and to help them understand that regardless of what they are going through, they are strong, can achieve anything, and have within them the will and wisdom to survive."
