Sabreen is a graduate of Clark Atlanta University (class of 2018) with a degree in communications. Upon graduating, Sabreen took a year to travel to various states and countries to perform poetry and develop the grit she needed to develop her craft.

Sabreen’s favorite quote is, “your gift is the thing you do the best with the least amount of effort.” She knows that soon, everything she has ever dreamed will one day be at the palms of her hands with intentional work, community, God and her gift.

She recently took a hiatus due to some health issues and is now excited to get back into the writing and poetry world to share her touching story.
