Jaime Hoerricks

I come from a land not marked on any map, a place where words grow like moss, slow and deliberate, and where being is valued over having. In this act of my life, I stand as an expat from Værensland, finally settled in my own skin, embracing the flow of my journey.

I have retired from forensic science, but my work continues in the form of thousands of articles, papers, and multiple books. I am now a schoolteacher, a PhD, a storyteller, a poet, and finally—after all these years—out in the open as a trans woman. I fully embrace my identity, my neurodivergence, and the joy of creating. In this act, I weave my experiences into words, offering them to others who might find resonance in the rhythms of this strange, beautiful journey.
