By day, I’m a librarian. By night, I’m a crafter, writer, gamer, and coder. I’m fascinated by The Weird and cosmic horror. I’m challenged by how to use the best of these elements in gaming while confronting the genre’s entanglement with white supremacy and I’ve still got a long way to go. I try to bring as much real history into my writing as possible, since, in the words of John Scott Tynes: “If you scratch history, it bleeds Weird.”

After years of writing for other people, I've begun publishing my own content too, starting with the Creeping Kudzu: A Monster Zine.
