  • I am a poet and novelist living in Aurora who teaches composition at Joliet Jr. College. I founded the writing retreat the Aurora Writers Workshop in 2024. My full-length collection of poetry, What Will Keep Us Alive, was published by Sundress Publications, and I have four chapbooks of poetry. My poems have been included in RHINO, Massachusetts Review, Tinderbox and other journals. I am writing a historical novel set during the. End of the whaling industry in New Bedford, MA. I lead a writers workshop group and a poetry book group in Aurora. Information about these events and the AWW retreat are available on the website.
