A native Washingtonian, I began work as a Longshoreman and a Teamster in Seattle and Bellingham. After earning the PhD back east, I am grateful to have found my way home.
Grateful also to cherish the teaching, the students who make my classes so rewarding, and the support for public scholarship.
As a writer I am interested chiefly in the environmental humanities, more particularly in how creative writing and culture studies may nourish one another.
