Jess Banx's love of poetry started at a young age. She both read poetry and started composing poems at the age of four. Her passion garnered notoriety through her schooling years, as teachers and peers alike recognized her talent. Later on, this lead to her writing poetry for her church, and some of her works received national attention through activism and advocacy. She is honored to finally have her first compilation of work, and hopes there will be many more to come.
