In 2023 he was the recipient of an Oregon Literary Fellowship in fiction. 

​

His short fiction and essays have been published in literary journals including The Write Launch, Sepia Quarterly, and Beyond Queer Words. 

​

His sun sign is Libra, which makes him sound too nice.

​

He is fond of cats, gag reels, and a dirty martini.
