Welcome to my website! I’m a writer, editor, and poet from southwest Colorado currently based in Western Montana. I bring nuance, empathy, and deep critical analysis to my work, which often engages themes of masculinity, violence, and the natural world.
My creative essays have been featured in publications such as The Missouri Review, Sport Literate, Catamaran, and elsewhere. My poems have found homes in Arc Poetry Magazine, The Appalachian Review, Emerge Literary Journal, The Boulder Weekly, and elsewhere. I’m currently working on a book-length project called ‘The Barbs’ that delves into the intersections of ice hockey, the outdoors, the West, boyhood, violence, and masculinity. My essay “Cutting the Ice” was named notable in Best American Essays 2021.
I’m also an accomplished journalist and editor. From 2021 to 2023, I was the News Editor for Field & Stream, where I led the renowned publication’s daily news coverage. I’m currently a contributing editor for Field & Stream and write longer investigative pieces, adventure narratives, and hunting and fishing gear coverage. Over the years, I’ve also contributed to nationally renowned publications such as Men’s Journal, Denver Westword, Outdoor Life, Backpacker, and more.
Please take a minute to peruse my work. I’m always looking to connect with other writers, editors, and folks in the outdoor industry. Drop me a line here.
