This website showcases some of the different kinds of unscholarly writing I’ve pursued over the years. Above all it’s a home for my poetry, which I’ve been writing since my teens. Interested visitors will also find a meditation journal I kept from 2022 to 2025, some prose entries from my poetry notebooks, and a few of my recordings of the poems that have been important to me. The links to these works are at the top and bottom of this homepage, and at the top right of every page (click on the three stacked bars).
If you stumbled onto this site accidentally while looking for some of my scholarly writing, this page might help you.)
My first book of poetry, Paper Black Leaf, has just been released. On the Poems page you’ll find a small selection of poems from that book. These will rotate often, so do come back in a while and look again. Whatever the time you spend here, thanks for looking in.

I stand and gaze up under the sap-sweet cathedral of the trees and tender to this world a green humility; to forces seasonal as these I too bow down my head and raise up leaves.
