Artist statement
My intent as an artist is to write about the intersection of virtue and adventure. I do this through a variety of mediums including poetry, prose, and spoken word.
Though I often fall short, I try my best to follow Christ in His example of humility and vulnerability, especially in my artistic endeavors. Because of this, my work often includes very personal anecdotes about my own shortcomings.

i MET HIM: THE BEST MANi met him series // july 1, 2019I met him at the end of the dinner table.
“Ya know what?” I pointed my steak knife at him, carving my words into the air between us. “I’m really glad you’re here. I needed a friend.” He picked up his own knife and crossed it with mine, signaling the beginning of a duel. “Is that all we are? Friends?” I faltered, losing ground. Laid my cutlery down in surrender and leaned in. “I’m not sure that we can be much else.” 
I MET HIM: THE PIRATEI MET HIM // JUNE 20TH, 2016He turned his empty beer bottle upside down, emptying the last drop . Holding the bottle neck to his eye, he peered at me through his makeshift spyglass. “Aye matey, fancy a bite to eat?”
I rolled my eyes and hopped off my peg-legged barstool. The sticky floor seemed to rock below me. I swayed along with the churning waves in my stomach. |
