Interests

I enjoy philosophy, particularly civic ethics. I enjoy reading and writing fantasy and historical fiction, and spend more than enough time on steam games. I enjoy various forums of debate, including online, Model UN, Moot Courts and Formal Debating.

Occupation

Pre-Service Teacher


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.
