I’m Shalyse, pronounced sh-ah-leece (in case your brain went - “wait how do I say that?”).

I care about a lot of things, a lot of the time. I’m in advertising to convince others to care about things too - and I’ve been doing so for about 6 years.

When I’m not writing ads, I’m forming words into poetry. My love for words continues into reading them, preferably a good fiction. Although I also love reading up on new places to travel, inspiring people to follow, and yoga poses to try.
