Writing.

I write about the strangeness and sprawl of Southern California. Much of my work is inspired by my hometown, where the IHOP is located next to the graveyard. I split my time between the mountains and the inland desert where I was raised. I hold a BA in Creative Writing from the University of California, Riverside, and an MA in Creative Writing from Texas Tech.
