TANZANIA
Where I learned to tell stories.
Where Storytelling Found Its Purpose
My earliest published writing wasn’t created behind a desk.
It was written after walking through villages, visiting schools, meeting families, and witnessing a community committed to keeping children where they belong—in families.
That experience forever changed how I approach communication.
THE WORK
These stories were written while serving with Kingdom Families in Tanzania, documenting schools, villages, family reunification, and everyday moments of hope.
Nearly ten years later, they remain the foundation of how I approach storytelling—with curiosity, dignity, and a deep respect for the people behind every story.
