ABOUT SHERIDAN
Sheridan Guerrette is an American writer, poet, and creative strategist whose multidisciplinary work spans poetry, editorial essays, brand architecture, and narrative design. Known for her precise, cinematic style and psychologically layered approach to storytelling, Guerrette’s work bridges the gap between literary expression and structural creation.
Born and raised in rural Minnesota, Guerrette’s early writing was shaped by solitude, observation, and an acute sensitivity to silence. Her teachers recognized her talent at a young age, often allowing her to submit poems in place of essays—an early sign of the distinct synthesis between form and feeling that would later define her work. After beginning her career in hospitality and creative operations, she went on to co-found and lead multiple ventures, including Oovi, an online mental health platform, which she later left due to creative differences. These experiences with system design and leadership would later inform the architectural discipline present in her art and writing.
Guerrette is the founder of Sheridan Guerrette, Inc., a creative and strategic advisory studio that develops brand systems, internal voice frameworks, and operational playbooks for teams, founders, and organizations. Through her studio, she has advised investors, executives, and artists on the intersection of human narrative and business structure.
As a poet, Guerrette’s work is anchored in the themes of endurance, control, and emotional architecture. Her debut collection, Heart & Its Exaggerations — Trailer Edition, serves as a limited-release prelude to a larger body of work encompassing thousands of poems written across her life. The collection combines poetry, author’s notes, and narrative flow to explore the relationship between silence and survival.
In parallel with her literary work, Guerrette is a lyricist for other musicians, translating her poetic style into music that blends noir-inspired imagery, emotional tension, and narrative rhythm. Her lyricism often carries the same psychological texture as her poetry—introspective, cinematic, and surgically precise.
Her drama editorial essays, published through her e-mail newsletter series What Sheridan Said, have drawn an international audience for their fusion of narrative nonfiction, personal reflection, and cultural analysis. Guerrette’s writing has been described as part memoir, part philosophy—using storytelling as a means to examine identity, control, and modern society. She also publishes experimental, unfiltered work through her secondary newsletter channel, Sheridan’s Junk Drawer, a space dedicated to creative chaos and process transparency.
Guerrette’s multidisciplinary approach positions her at the intersection of literature, strategy, and design. Her work treats communication as architecture—something that must be built, inhabited, and understood. Whether constructing a poem, a song, or a brand identity, her guiding principle remains the same: that meaning can be designed as deliberately as any structure, and beauty, when built precisely, becomes a kind of endurance.
