Bio

I was born in the state of Missouri in 1991. Dad was in the military, and then he worked for Wells Fargo. Mom is very religious and practices Catholicism, having been trained as a spiritual director by the Jesuits. My sister Ally is a social worker.

My first dream was to play music, so I moved to New York when I was twenty-two years old. After suffering a mental breakdown, I moved back to the Midwest. Now I am in graduate school studying American poetry.
