ABOUT ME

Based in North Carolina, I have been a regular contributor of features and columns to the Durham Herald-Sun, Fifteen-501 magazine, and the Carrboro Free Press, and have published nationally on religion for Commonweal magazine and Busted Halo.

I began publishing a small magazine of short fiction, FOLIO (thefolio.blogspot.com), in 2006 while studying for a BFA at SUNY Purchase College. I am now pursuing a Masters in Library Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
