I have three full-length collections of poetry, two chapbooks, and another full-length collection coming soon. My poems have appeared in journals such as Rattle, Copper Nickel, Barrelhouse, Versal, Colorado Review, Laurel Review, MidAmerican Review, Cincinnati Review, and Cortland Review, and my work has been featured in the following anthologies: The Giant Book of Poetry, Even the Daybreak: 35 Years of Salmon Poetry, and New Writing: An Anthology.  I am a proud recipient of six grants from the Kentucky Foundation for Women and of three residencies in Ireland through Salmon Literary Centre and the Burren Art College and I was a Fulbright Scholar in Cluj-Napoca at Universitatea Babeș-Bolyai spring semester 2020.
