You might’ve noticed the blog has a new name: The Curated Lens. It’s a reflection of what I’ve always loved—reading, photography, and travel—and how I see the world through stories and snapshots. 

This space is evolving with me, becoming more intentional, more aligned with the creative pulse that drives me.

Changing the name wasn’t just cosmetic. It was a reclamation. A reminder that my voice matters, that my perspective—whether through a camera lens or a book review or a travelogue—is worth sharing.

I won’t pretend the journey back has been easy. There were days I questioned whether I had anything left to say. But slowly, through the books I’ve read, the places I’ve wandered, and the images I’ve captured, I’ve started to feel that familiar spark again.

So here I am. Writing again. Creating again. Reconnecting with the things that make me feel most alive.

Thanks for being here. I’m excited to see where this next chapter leads.
