Depending on the day of the week, I could be any combination of the following:

- a writer of fictions, nonfictions, and (albeit rarely) poetry
- a Ph.D. student in Creative Writing at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
- an avid traveler
- a rabid follower of most things soccer-related

Using the links above you can: find out more about me and my current academic pursuits; peruse my list of published short stories and articles; check out what books I’ve been reading; review the courses I’ve taken and taught in graduate school; and delve into my blog Unstable Realities, where I comment on our travels, reflect on what I’ve been reading and writing, and rant about international soccer.

Oh, and you can also read about what’s up with the banner images.
