• • The Art of Centering is a debut collection of poems tracing a slow, honest journey from a hyper-structured corporate life in London and Zurich to a quieter, integrated existence in the Bernese Oberland. Written in the aftermath of personal crisis and profound loss, these poems examine the walls we build to endure, the illusions we chase to escape our grief, and the quiet reckoning required to finally become whole. Anchored by the daily physical practice of throwing clay on the pottery wheel, the collection offers no easy answers—only spare, grounded reflections on solitude, memory, and the grace of starting over late in the game.
Status Indicator: Selections currently under consideration at premier literary journals. A 12-poem preview booklet and the full manuscript are available to publishers, literary agents, and collaborators upon request.
