"Working with Ariana was affirming and educational. The feedback and insights that I received have changed the ways I think about writing and allowed me to feel more confident in my own work. I could bring my full self and any questions into our sessions. While encouraging, Ariana also challenged me to go beyond my comfort zone and explore new writing styles and topics."

"Ariana is incredibly knowledgeable about the ins and outs of poetic tools and techniques, which is not only helpful if you're interested in traditional form, but also if you're curious about intentional ways to break from and push at the boundaries of the genre in order to best tell your story and fit your voice. Ariana is also thoughtful about understanding in what specific ways the mentee wants to grow, and provides great resources and exercises to best facilitate and nurture that growth. The best mentorship is that which is is honest and contains room for eye-opening discussion, not just about the individual, but also about the spaces they hope to enter, and I have definitely felt that in my mentorship with Ariana."
