About Me

I’m a poet, writer, and educator! Right now I’m a lecturer at the University of Miami, where I also received my MFA as a James A. Michener fellow.

My chapbook, Gratitude List, was published from Bull City Press in 2024—you can buy in the section below! My full length poetry manuscript, Rehumanization Litany, was one of two Honorable Mentions for the Vanderbilt University Literary Book Prize, and also an honorable mention for the Miami Book Fair Emerging Writer Fellowship.

Individual poems of mine have been nominated for Best of the Net, and won awards from the Academy of American Poets, Baltimore Review, and the Poetry Society’s 2022 National Poetry Competition.

You can find my work in Ploughshares, AGNI, POETRY Magazine, Poets.org, and elsewhere. Check out my poetry page to see forthcoming publications and read poems i’ve published in magazines!

My debut chapbook, Gratitude List, is now out with Bull City Press!

From the website:

“Gratitude List is a series of interconnected prose poems that follows a group of friends in recovery from addiction to drugs and alcohol. In poems that dive fully into the grief of losing loved ones to addiction, the intimacy of communal healing, and the challenges faced within that healing, Gratitude List portrays the everyday lives of recovering addicts and the tenderness formed between them in recovery.”
