Omni Wren
Omni Wren is now my legal name and it means all birds as in 'All birds can fly' I changed my name after I had had a traumatic past, including two life changing car accidents, a change in my career unable to work as I did before, PTSD, Chronic pain and fatigue, emergency surgery that I almost lost my life to, and illness after a 2year internal bleed as a result. When I decided to change my name I decided I was going to write myself a new story and take control of my life..
