I'm a PhD student in English and Creative Writing at the University of Southern Mississippi. I'm a poet, and I aspire to continue writing and publishing poetry and to teach it someday. I currently teach college composition classes and have also taught courses in literature and rhetoric.

I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2012 and received my Masters in English from Loyola Marymount University in 2014. In addition to teaching college undergraduates, I have tutored high school students in Spanish, English, and writing as well.
