She earned her MFA from the University of Utah and is currently a PhD candidate in literature and creative writing at the University of Missouri. Her work has appeared in So to Speak: A Feminist Journal of Literature and Art and Stories South, and she is the former creative nonfiction editor of Quarterly West Literary Journal.
