Poetry and Prose
Since I first picked up a book when I was a child, I’ve been enthralled by the written word.
I had my first piece selected for publication in my early teens. It was a poem, and from there I was hooked. Through my mid twenties, I would go on to have half a dozen poems published in poetry collections while also writing short stories and chasing that ever elusive first novel.
Now, I regularly write poetry and short stories, and I’m hard at work on my third book (and the first I plan to publish). To read my writing, check out the blog page and my profile on Medium.

Do you need a writer to fight stigma, inspire others, and advocate for policy and cultural change? If your publication needs a fresh voice, let’s work together. My Mental Health and Addiction journey gave me a story to captivate and invigorate.
I’ve written for publications including David’s Voice, New York Minute Magazine, and Guy Talk and change-making organizations including 1in5 and the SAFE Project.
