I'm a writer based in Los Angeles.
Queer intimacy is the lifeblood of my writing. Raised by writers such as James Baldwin, Leslie Feinberg, C.P. Cavafy, Audre Lorde, and James Ivory- I have always been enamoured by what is communicated in between the lines of gay and lesbian narratives. I strive to imbue my genre-typical stories with a subtextual queer twist that enhances the narratives we all love.
