Biography

Born and raised in St. Louis, I moved to New York City in 2003 to attend New York University, where I studied English literature and film, and I'm now living in the East Village of Manhattan. I am currently a graduate student at NYU in an interdisciplinary humanities program. My short stories have appeared in a variety of publications, and I also review books for Strange Horizons. I previously worked in the film and publishing industries, doing various things like assisting at a major film festival and editing huge books about the nation's top law firms and "What To Do After Business School," but I'm now happily employed at NYU's Expository Writing Program.
