Education

BA English, University of Michigan

I am pursuing an MFA in creative writing and poetics at the University of Washington Bothell. In 2019, I placed first in prose for Macomb Community College's ARTIFEX magazine with "Flashes From a Storm." I enjoy using science fiction and fantasy to explore themes of humanity, existence, subversion, and belonging. In my free time, I enjoy video games, Michigan sports, and relaxing with my partner and two cats.
