This summer I am planning on hiking the 48 4000-footers of New Hampshire. I started to hike these mountains years ago with my family and have slowly been chipping away at the list. However, I want to take advantage of my time and ability, and have decided to (ideally) complete the list by the end…
“Lumpless”
My piece, “Lumpless,” has just been published in The Palisades Review. It is a very personal, creative nonfiction story about my father. Publication Journey: I wrote this piece and submitted it to The Palisades Review only. I quite enjoy their nonfiction work, and felt that my writing style could be a good fit for their publication….
“Depths of Winter”
My piece, “Depths of Winter,” has just been published in the newest issue of the Maine Natural History Observer! This story focuses on an experience I had earlier this year, in the woods close to my home.

Exploring the United Kingdom and Ireland with Friends
Another year means another trip across the globe with my partner and two of our closest friends. We took a stretch of time off from traveling last year to save money for our upcoming trips this summer and fall, and it has already proven to be well worth it. We started planning this trip to…
“Ugly and Pretty”
My piece, “Ugly and Pretty,” was selected by NonBinary Review for their Issue # 35: “Old Friends.” As an Associate Editor of this publication, I was very flattered, and as a writer, I was thrilled!

A Weekend at the Carnaval De Québec!
Over the first weekend in February, my partner and I visited the Carnaval De Québec and explored the city, along with its neighboring town, Lévis. We had visited once before—on a roadtrip through Vermont, New York, and Canada in the summer of 2019—and it was a wonderful time. Old Québec is the closest we can…
“Mingling in the Marsh”
My short nonfiction story, “Mingling in the Marsh,” was published in the Maine Natural History Observer this fall 2023, and is available for purchase at the MNHO website. This was a short piece that I wrote about the trail my family and I walk once—if not several times—every day. It holds a special place in my…
“Date Night”
Below I have provided a link to my short fiction story, “Date Night,” which was published in the 2022 Summer Edition of West Trade Review. I also interviewed with the Associate Fiction Editor, Jonathan Lindberg, to discuss my writing process and how I came up with this story. This interview is public on the WTR YouTube…
Recent Mini-Trips
Over the past few weeks I have been fortunate enough to get to go on some long weekend trips! I have filmed these for my own documentation, as I tend to forget everything, but also to share my adventures with friends and family. One was to New York City in early September with my parents…
Island Hopping with Friends in Greece
What can be said about Greece that has not been said before? It was as warm, sunny, picturesque, and delicious as everyone claims. In May, two friends, my partner, and I flew to Athens to begin our island hopping journey through the Aegean, ending with a beautiful three days spent in Chania, Crete. Out of…
