My poetry appears or is forthcoming in Rattle, The Healing Muse, Marin Poetry Anthology, California Quarterly, Ars Medica, Pulse, American Journal of Nursing, and Nursing2023, among other journals and anthologies.

I am a founding member of two writing groups: a poetry critique group which continues to meet monthly after twenty years, and a group focusing on study, writing and critique, that still meets weekly after more than five years. I am also a co-host for the monthly poetry reading series, Rivertown Poets.

My first full-length collection of medical narrative poetry based primarily on her nursing career, entitled “Standing in Their Fire,” will be published by Kelsay Books, summer of 2025.
