hello sweet person!

I am a writer / performer / director currently based in Los Angeles.

I have a newsletter called Indefinitely that you can subscribe to here (I started it during the pandemic and it’s one of my all-time favorite projects).

I contribute for Reductress and co-edit my own satirical publication on Medium called Honeynews. I also write and direct sketches & shorts and perform comedic essays and poetry around the city. I did this all in Chicago for a long time and now live in L.A.
