My writing has appeared in Jellyfish Review, Spilled Milk, phoebe, Contrary Magazine, jubilat, and elsewhere. I am a Pushcart Prize nominee and former James Merrill House fellow. In the late 1990s, I was one of two lead singers for the all-women, double-bass, no-guitar, make-your-ears-bleed punk band, Chickita. We released two 7 inches: “Eat When Soft to the Touch” and “Karen Learns about Our Nation.” 

I have an MFA in fiction from University of Wisconsin–Madison and a BA in English & American Literature from Harvard University.
