I’m an author, artist, and creative writing professor. My multidisciplinary approach to writing and bookmaking leads me into various scholarly and social fields, always with an eye towards expanded narrativity and books as radical objects.

I love traveling, collecting materials & stories, then collaborating to transform teamwork into enchanted instrumentation that propels curiosity and activism in support of civil rights and environmental health. My projects include environmental biology, cartography, and mythology, idiosyncratically researched and translated.
