I do two things: Write and work for the improvement of my Community. On the writing front, here are reviews of my latest two projects:

–A starred review in Publishers Weekly for my short story collection, The Voices of Martyrs

-A write up in the New York Times of my novella, Buffalo Soldier

I do a lot of Community Development work. My passions have always included social justice, economic equity, and racial reconciliation, which is why I work part-time at The Oaks Academy as a middle grade Logic teacher, do work for the Kheprw Institute, and work alongside The Learning Tree. Most of my work centers around the 46208 zip code (one of the “worst” zip codes in the country). We specialize in Asset Based Community Development, finding the gifts and talents within the community and networking them to improve the quality of the community.

I launched a Patreon because some friends wanted a way to help support the work that I do in the community. If you would like to support it (and receive updates on the work that’s being done) please feel free to join. Thank you so much!
