I’m a writer and tutor living in Brooklyn, NY.

Before Brooklyn, I lived in Ohio, Rhode Island, and Bangkok. In 2010 I received my MFA in creative writing from Columbia University, and I’m now working on a variety of projects in both nonfiction and fiction. I like Venn diagrams, linguistics, extended analogies, and coming up with ideas for graphics that I don’t have the ability to draw.

I thought I would start a blog instead of filing away scraps of thoughts and notes on my iPhone like a 21st-century squirrel.
