         I grew up in Iowa. I joined the USMC when I was seventeen--luckily the reserves (sorry to be a fleet dodger). I ended up a Machine Gunner, and not only did I go overseas to go through the Israeli Defense Force Counter Terrorism School, I also did a tour in Iraq where I served about fifteen klicks west of Fallujah, just north of the Euphrates. When I got, back I went to Iowa State University. Then I went to VCFA for my Masters in creative nonfiction writing.
         I provide links to my works that are online, just click around.
        There are buttons in the bottom right corner that link to FB and Twitter. I run my facebook like an art zine and my twitter is a living author bio.

Things I should brag about:

Fox Sports publishing video poetry of my work, with me reading

I'm in the Best American Essays anthology, 2017

I'm a notable in the BAE 2016

I've had worked nominated for Push Cart Prizes and Best of the Net

I've been published in the New York Times

I did all of this without an agent, wealth, or popularity
