Bio
​
​
​​​As a writer and visual artist I'm inspired by everything from the sublime to the ironic. The present moment echos the past, and writing is the oxygen that keeps my spirit alive. I hope my writing tickles you or moves you to feel something altogether new for you.
Writing: essays, fiction, and creative non fiction.​​​​
