A little about me: My poetry has been published online and in print with Sensations Magazine, JMW Publishing Co., Hickory Playgrounds, and Vox Poetica. Most recently, selected poems were accepted for publication in the New Brunswick Poetry Anthology and the When Women Speak Poetry Anthology.  


When I'm not doing art projects with my nieces or writing poetry, I enjoy reading, dancing, and going hiking with my husband and our dog.
