Creative and Scholarly

Writing

I am a scholar, creative writer, artist, and performer living in Southern Utah. I enjoy working with hybridity, found texts, and erasure. I am the author of the chapbook Quasar #6, and my other creative works have been published in print and online. I am also an avid book binder and zinester.
