I live and write in New York City.  In addition to playwriting, I write poetry. My poems have been accepted by Contemporary Ghazals, Eastern Structures, Blue Lake Review, Burningword and, most recently, Poeming Pigeon. I attended the Writers Studio, an independent creative writing school founded by the Pulitzer Prize winning poet Philip Schultz. In my final two years, I was a member of Phil’s master class.  I earned my graduate and undergraduate degrees at New York University, where I majored in English education and also studied journalism, filmmaking and art history.  For many years, I worked as a corporate writer.  These days, I devote my writing efforts entirely to poetry, essays, and playwriting.
