I write poems and essays that examine modern work life, systems, and moral responsibility.
My poetry is published in literary journals and developed as long-form projects, including my completed collection, Company Time, and Terms and Conditions, a work-in-progress that approaches contemporary labor and institutional life as a moral comedy.
Alongside the poems, I write essays that think through adjacent questions of form, voice, restraint, and complicity, often in conversation with other writers. These essays reflect the problems the work presents rather than offering conclusions.
For many years, my professional life has unfolded inside the very systems the poems interrogate. That experience informs the writing without serving as its subject. The work is not reportage or satire, but an attempt to understand how language, responsibility, and attention operate under modern conditions.
I also teach writing and lead workshops focused on craft, revision, and ethical clarity.
