A guide to Humble the Poet
I'm a former school teacher turned creative. What began as reciting spoken word poetry in coffee shops to impress girls evolved into a creative adventure that has spanned the last 10 years; crossing genres, mediums and oceans. I'm now an author, hip-hop artist, speaker, designer, filmmaker, and creative consultant. I've made a lot of mistakes along the way and share the lessons I've learned for all those looking to have a better life. There is a common thread that flows through my work, even if it's just a strand of my beard.

Best-selling Author
My book Unlearn: 101 Simple Truths For A Better Life has become an international bestseller. In the book, I explore simple life lessons that remind us that we gain more from letting go. In October 2019, I released my second international bestseller, Things No One Else Can Teach Us
