Author bio

I am an emerging writer from Oregon experimenting in the areas of poetry, short stories, playwrights, and novel writing. I began recording my poetry during the Covid-19 lockdowns, and now have a collection of over 100 poems. My first short playwright, "A Sweet Soul to Save Me," my short story, "Ladislao," along with a collection of five poems earned honorable mentions in the Scholastic Art and Writing 2022 contest. I have two poems accepted by Skrews Syndication and another short story and poem accepted by OpenDoor Review in 2023. My debut novella, Ladislao's Influence, was published December 2023.
