As a student of science, I weave an understanding of human behavior, relationships, and deterministic theory into my poetry and fiction. While doing so, I create poetry and prose that reflect an inner understanding of self. I propose, through my reading, to elicit a deep-rooted commonality that connects warmth to our shared earthliness.
