Karl Johnson expresses creatively on mental health, race and racial identity, growth and change, and relationships. As a Korean Adoptee, these have been common themes and often intersect with duality, ambiguity, and writing his own narrative. Karl brings experience as a community organizer, youth developer, nonprofit enthusiast, foodie, and strategic thinker to share poetry and encourage others to write and challenge how they think about themselves and those around them. His relationships with friends and family have guided him in his journey of self-awareness and growth.
