Welcome

I'm a poet and physics teacher living on the tradition territory of the Lheidli T'enneh in Prince George, BC. I have four books of poetry, Sprocket, Undiscovered Country, This Isn't the Apocalypse We Hoped For, and Understories. I've also had six chapbooks published: Behind the Bladed Green, Deerness, Four Neat HolesThe Picket Fence Diaries, Black As Crow, and Sumas Flats. My poems have also been published in a variety of journals, anthologies, and videopoems, and a selection have been translated into Italian and Spanish.
