It's all about meeeeeeee

I was born into the life of windmillery...

But actually.

I love words.
I took a creative writing class in 2014, and thought: “Hey. This is fun."

I'm the kind of person who aces a chemistry test and then trips on the way out because I'm horrible at tying shoelaces.


Interests

I could have a deep conversation about superheroes even though the only comic books I've read are Calvin & Hobbes; I know all the Zelda games by heart, even though I've never played one; and I proudly declare that I'm a Slytherin, even though Harry Potter isn't really my cup of tea.

Occupation

Largest share holder of the Illuminati. Former cat sitter. Future citizen of Mars.


The idea that a poem was a made thing stayed with me, and I decided then that I wanted to be an artist, not just a diarist. So I put myself through a kind of apprenticeship in writing poetry, and I understood even then that my practice as a poet was deeply related to my reading.
