Hello! I’m a writer and a high school English teacher from Northern California. My short stories have appeared in Chicago Quarterly Review, Southern Humanities Review, Booth, and elsewhere. In 2021, I won the Fiction Prize at Salamander Magazine and, in 2023, one of my short shorts was anthologized in Flash Fiction America (Norton).
I’ve been steadily working on a story collection and a novel. Over the years, I’ve been lucky to receive support from the Tin House Summer Workshops, the Kenyon Review, the Community of Writers, as well as the In Cahoots Residency.
When I’m not writing or revising the same sentence for the hundredth time, there is a good chance you will find me on one of the country roads running with my dog. Or just walking.
I would love to hear from you. Please use the following form to get in touch:
