I’m a poet from Tucson, Arizona. My parents are Ukrainian and Russian émigrés. My favorite hot dog varietal is Sonoran. My favorite tree species is weeping willow. I’m listening to Television.

I received my MFA in Creative Writing from Syracuse University. I grill Hofmann franks and teach writing in Syracuse, New York. My first full-length book of poems, American Loon, is forthcoming from Burnside Review Press in 2027.
