Publications

My first piece of writing was published in a Blue Examination book given to me by my English professor uncle when I was nine years old. My first "real" publication came in college when a piece of fiction I wrote in a creative writing class was submitted to and accepted for publication in International Gymnast magazine. 

After graduate school, I went on to become freelance arts and entertainment writer with regular assignments for newspapers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Crested Butte, Colorado.

I now live in Bozeman, Montana, and still find time to write while balancing a full-time job, outdoor pursuits, and an active social life.
