I am a lifelong writer who only began to seriously pursue poetry in the last few years.

Raised in Massachusetts, I decided it was okay to leave the comfort of Red Sox country when I learned there were Dunkin Donuts in Indiana.

My writing is often assisted by cats, who think they can do better than me by walking across the keyboard. Sometimes they do.

I have had poems included in over 70 journals and anthologies and have published three chapbooks.

I am a co-creator of the Captain Janeway statue in Bloomington, Indiana, starting and administering the project from beginning to end along with a dedicated team of Trekkies and artisans.
