It’s been a while since I’ve written here. Life, as it tends to do, got full—full of projects, deadlines, leadership challenges, research papers, and all the beautiful, messy things in between.
But I’ve missed this space.
Writing has always been a way for me to reflect, to connect, and to make sense of the world. So I’m pressing reset. Not starting over, exactly, but returning with a deeper sense of purpose.
Since my last post, a lot has changed.
I moved back to Atlanta, I stepped into a new role in tech. I also started a PhD in Human Development, diving into the science of habits and their impact on well-being and happiness. It’s been intense, rewarding, and sometimes overwhelming—but it’s also helped me see patterns, lessons, and truths I want to share.
This blog is my space to do just that.
I’m returning to write about the themes that keep showing up in my life: growth, habits, leadership, and well-being. Sometimes through personal stories. Sometimes through research. Sometimes through lessons I’ve learned the hard way.
You’ll find reflections on how to lead with intention, how to build sustainable habits, how to protect your energy in high-stress environments, and maybe even a few side adventures—photography, travel, tacos (because life is also meant to be enjoyed).
So here I am—back at the keyboard.
Let’s see where this takes us.
If you’ve been here before: thank you.
If you’re new: welcome.
If you’re curious about the messy, meaningful path of personal growth—I hope you’ll stick around.
