Poetry

If theatre is my first love, poetry is my strongest. Poetry is my home discipline—it's where I'm able to poke at big ideas and mold them to fit within the boundaries of lines and stanzas. My poetry spans from micro to medium-length, almost always using some sort of syllabic or rhythmic structure or pattern; my strongest poems come from delicately dissecting (and then Frankenstein-ing together) memory and myth. Ultimately, my work in poetry—whether written, performed, or otherwise shared—aims to understand how we protect and redefine our identities, as well as the stories we've inherited.
