I am a queer poet with my BA in creative writing from the University of Tennessee. Recently, I have been working in printmaking, sculpture, and ceramics to expand my poetry beyond the page and into the world of visual arts and the gallery space. I believe that a poem is an ever-changing body, one that has endless potential thrive in a grotesque post-modern American world. I am interested in researching Modernist feminist poetry which revolutionized the way America constructed and continues to construct the "feminine" stereotype. Marie Howe, Arielle Greenburg, Alex Dimitrov, and J. Butler all have had a tremendous impact on the way I approach my own writing and have inspired a desire for raw sexual honesty.

In the future, I would like to be self- publiished or part of a publishing company that focuses on queer voices.
