Poetry: 

​​

Seems my poem "Speechless" has been anthologized. Find it in a new 2024 Poetry Downtown anthology honoring Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" - you can get it here.

​

I'm not actually sure what "In Case You Were Wondering" is. Could be flash. Could be narrative poetry. Could be a fever dream. You can read it in the inaugural issue of Birdhouse Magazine, available here online (or in print Birdhouse Magazine Issue #1, December 2022.)

​

"After the Audition" published in an all-Villanelle issue of Limp Wrist. Read it in Issue #4, Sept 2021.

​

"Haiku," a poem published in inaugural issue of Sinking City Magazine, Sept 2016. Winner of the Spring 2016 #AWPPoem Haiku Contest

 

Winner: #NYCPOETTWEET annual contest sponsored by Metro, and judged by NYC Mayor DeBlasio's wife, poet Chirlane McCray, April, 2014.
