While I'm proud of various accomplishments throughout my life, frankly, I've been a bit of a coward about calling myself a writer for a while. This blog is my effort to be a little bit brave again in that regard.
I have a BA in Creative Writing from Johns Hopkins University and was a Rackham Merit Fellow for Poetry in graduate school at the University of Michigan. I also have a Masters of Science in Teaching from Fordham University.
I currently teach at Soongsil University in Seoul, South Korea.
But these details are mere talking points about my life rather than saying anything substantive about my personal pitfalls and passions. I hope you'll come to know them through my blog content as my writing grows, piece by piece.
