Bio (auto)
I live in Jersey City, New Jersey with my wife, children and two cats. My chapbook, Living in the Counterpoint, won the 2014 Jean Pedrick Chapbook Award from the New England Poetry Society. Poems from my current collection, The Beautiful Moment of Being Lost (Poets Wear Prada), have been nominated for a Pushcart Prize. I’ve received a fellowship from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts and the Chaffin Poetry Award. My other two collections are Transcriptions of Daylight (Rattapallax Press) and Because the Wind Has Questions (Somers Rock Press).
