She aims to create moments of intimacy and connection with her work, tapping into that particular collaborative magic that happens between an artist and an attentive audience. Marie believes in the power of vulnerability in its ability to breed empathy and understanding among diverse individuals and communities. Marie’s poetry has been published in a number of anthologies and journals in print and online.
