Writer and Visual Artist
I have such exciting news! My debut poetry collection, Menagerie of Forgotten Monsters, is being publishing on December 7th, 2026. This is a collection of poetry centered around the ideas of mental illness, family estrangement, and finding beauty in dark places. Preorders are now available on Amazon!
Spring and Summer have been really good to me so far creatively. I’ve embraced poetry again and it’s just been so nice to have an outlet where the words are flowing. I’m also so grateful for the journals that have embraced my return to the poetry world:
“One Hundred Reasons” (LEAF – Issue 10)
“My Religion” (Backsliders Magazine – June 2026)
“The Butterfly” (Ephemeral Elegies – June 2026)
One haiku (Haikuniverse – June 2026)
And stay tuned for more news about a full-length collection – coming soon-ish!

I have another new poem to share, “The Butterfly” published on Ephemeral Elegies. For those that don’t know – Ephemeral Elegies is a passion project of mine. It’s a poetry-centric literary journal that began in 2020. After five years, I took a year break to sort of re-center and rediscover my passion for poetry. But now it’s back and we’re publishing two poems weekly. Submissions are open and if you’re a poet, feel free to check out the guidelines HERE! We publish new and emerging poets from all over the world, and it’s been such an honor and privilege to encounter so many amazing artists and offer a small platform in the vibrant poetry community.
The month of April is National Poetry Month! Each day I’ll be challenging myself to write and post a haiku! If you’re a poetry fan, please consider also visiting Ephemeral Elegies as we’ve expanded to two poems a week, and it’s a great place to discover some new and emerging poets!

then suddenly green

watching the playful squirrels
Wishing to belong
