It’s About Me

I received a BA in English from The Ohio State University and an MFA in Creative Writing from Southern Illinois University. I’ve been published in Zone 3 and Geometry, and online at The Carolina Quarterly and Cleaver Magazine. In 2016, I was a finalist for the Yemassee Writing Prize judged by Claire Vaye Watkins, and have twice been featured as Honorable Mention for Glimmer Train contests, Nov/Dec 2016 and Mar/Apr 2019.

I currently live in Columbus, Ohio with my wife and robust spirits collection, enjoy building theme-based cocktails, and I work for the nation’s largest alcohol broker as a Key Account Specialist.
