About

I am a writer, actor, teacher, singer, guitarist based in Northern Virginia.

I publish my poems here, and my collected works are available in four print volumes.

I have appeared in numerous productions near Philadelphia with Pulley & Buttonhole Theatre Company, The Stagecrafters Theater, Old Academy Players, and Players Club of Swarthmore. I have also worked in children’s theatre as an actor and director with Family Stages.

I have a BA in Theatre and English from Wittenberg University, an MA in English from Kent State, and a PhD in Creative Writing from Binghamton. I taught composition and writing at the college level for over ten years. I have also worked at churches, libraries, and coffeeshops.
