Typewriter Poet for Hire

Whether you're seeking encouragement, reflection, or simply a creative pause to begin your day, leave with words that remind you to pay closer attention to your own life.

I arrive to your event with a vintage typewriter, a listening ear, and a blank page. Individuals bring me a word, a memory, a question, a person/something they love, or simply a feeling they can't quite name. In just a few minutes, I transform a story into an original poem written live in approximately five minutes.

Each and every poem is unique. There are no templates, no algorithms, and no second copies. Every poem is an invitation to pause, pay attention, and remember what it feels like to be fully human.

Whether I'm at a wedding, bookstore, coffee shop, festival, conference, or community gathering, my hope is the same: to create moments of wonder and connection that people carry home in their pockets.

Because sometimes the words we need most aren't found in a greeting card or on a screen. They're discovered in the quiet space between two strangers, the rhythm of old keys striking paper, and the simple act of someone saying, "Tell me your story."

“It was wonderful meeting you, and we want to thank you for your extraordinary poetic response to our conversation about our grouping of ladies.

You have moved us with your words, which reflect your acutely tuned insight, and resonate brightly with our frequencies. 

So radiant and connective. We love the poem so much. Thank you!”

“I love it [the poem] so much! I’m going to frame it but it’s on my fridge for now. I’ll treasure these words forever.”

“I’ve been waiting for this moment [to get a poem] since I first met you!”

“My daughter and I got a poem from you last night and it was the perfect bookend to our trip out west!”
