About

I am a self-taught artist and poet who is inspired daily by the wonders of life around me, my present and past experiences, and both the inner and outer beauty of all women.

I am a published poet in the Journal of Ordinary Thought through the Neighborhood Writing Alliance here in Chicago. The Journal of Ordinary Thought has published four poems—By the Roaring Fire, The Waves of Change, Under Construction and You’re Gone, Kit Kat, You’re Gone. The Winter 2012 issue, “I Believed Every Word: JOT Writers on Urban Legends…” includes my essay, Harry Potter and My Brother’s Spirit. The next issue, "Open Gate," includes my poem, One of Those Rare Dads.

I love watching science fiction, fantasy, and action in movies and reading those genres in literature in my spare time. I live in a one bedroom apartment in Chicago with my 2 year-old white and ginger cat, Butterscotch. Previously, I had a black and white long-haired cat named Kit Kat, who lived to be 20 years old.
