Engaging with people across divides informs my poetry and other writing. Called a “new troubadour of witness” by Cyrus Cassells for my poetry chapbook, Where Are You From, Originally? (Finishing Line Press, 2016), I am also working on a collection of poems based on my experiences engaging with the “other” (or person or perspective difficult to understand or in opposition to one’s own) in Israel/Palestine. Poems from this collection have appeared in Crab Orchard Review, HEArt Journal Online: Human Equity through Art, and Scoundrel Time among others. My poems have won the Academy of American Poets Award, the Mary Merritt Henry Poetry Contest, and the Phenomena of Place Poetry Prize.
