Author's Bio

I expatriated from the U.S. and moved to Hanoi, Vietnam in 2012. Currently, I teach in the Professional Communications department at RMIT University while I follow my literary pursuits. In my work, I try to use humor to delve into deeper, more serious themes. In that way, my best poems are like Flinstones Vitamins. While they go down easy and are generally enjoyable, they are also kind of good for you. Too many in a single sitting is not recommended though. 

My first book 'The Mise en Abyme Jokebook' was published in 2019 by UnCollected Press and is currently available.
