“Auden was right after all: we must love one another and die, and learning to do the first helps with learning to do the other.”

― Steve Scafidi

WELCOME

I’m a New York City–based writer, photographer, and short film creator. My fiction has appeared in New Ohio Review, and my poetry received an Honorable Mention in the 2025 Sarah Lawrence Poetry of Science Prize. I was a Randall Jarrell Fellow in the Creative Nonfiction MFA program at Sarah Lawrence College.

My work explores complex trauma, psychedelics, and social justice through a gender-conscious lens.

As a professional photographer and videographer, I’ve traveled the world in search of compelling stories, shaping narratives through images and words. Nice to meet you.

 
 
 

 

Workshops + Mentorships: Lilly Dancyger, Alison J. Stein, Nina Boutsikaris, Esme Wang, Ellen Bass, Margo Steines
