Who am I?

Here is where I tell you who I am.

I write literary science fiction, fantasy, slipstream, and horror. My writing has appeared (or is forthcoming) in magazines such as Apex Magazine, Asimov Press, The Adroit Journal, Fusion Fragment, Lightspeed Magazine, Flash Fiction Online, The Daily Tomorrow, Weird Horror, and many more. My fiction has been reviewed in Reactor Magazine (“Eternal Recurrence was a July 2024 “Must Read”) Locus Magazine (my story “The Song, It’s Singers, and the End of the World” was a recommended read), Tangent Online, and Amazing Stories. I was the winner of the Protocolized Magazine 2025 Short Story Competition for my story “Noise Ordinance.” My story “Nine Theories of Time” published in Apex Magazine, was a 2023 Eugie Foster Memorial Award for Short Fiction. I am a two-time Pushcart Prize nominee, a Best Small Fictions nominee, and a Rhysling Award nominee.

I have lived all over the United States, including California, Philadelphia, New Jersey, and Boston. I write about the intersections of technology, grief, humanism, futurism, loss, and love. My work explores the environment, technology, philosophy, science, the body, gender, aliens, and everything in between. When I was seven, my cousin, who was getting his PhD. in astrophysics, got me a copy of David Macaulay’s The Way Things Work. There was a section on nuclear fusion, and my first intellectual love was born: particle physics. A few years later, I got a copy of one of my grandmother’s books of English Poetry. In those couplets and stanzas I fell in love with words, and the power of writing, and my second intellectual love was born. I started writing stories a few years later and I haven’t stopped.
