Hi there–I’m a writer, editor, and teacher from northeast Indiana. My work has appeared in Atlas Obscura, Terrain.org, and Belt Magazine, where I served as features editor and staff writer from 2018-2022. My first book, In the Watershed, was published in 2017. (You can hear me talk about it here.)

I’m currently an assistant professor in the Department of Humanities and Communication at Trine University. Previously, I studied American literature and culture at Purdue University and the University of Illinois at Chicago.
