Unpacked.
Stories, experiences, and perspective — Maybe messy, always honest, All Mine.
I’m a traveler, an observer, and Queer Human who’s endlessly curious about people and place. I was born and raised in Kentucky, but raised by stories.
One of my goals is to leave this life feeling like I’ve lived 500 years’ worth of experience in one — and to share those stories with others who are searching, dreaming, building, or becoming. I believe with curiosity, boldness, and a willingness to say yes, I can do just that.
Unpacked is where I share what I find along the way.
This is part travel journal, part creative sandbox, part cultural download. A space to unpack ideas, obsessions, queer joy, beautiful places, and the things that make life feel expansive; a space to connect.
Some of it’s deep. Some of it’s flirty. Some of it might help you dream, wander, or wonder a little more.
It’s not polished. It’s not prescriptive.
It’s just Unpacked.
And I’m glad you’re here.
