hello, there! My name is Jennifer.

I am a writer, educator, book publicist, and creative dabbler. Often led by the breadcrumbs of my curiosity, most recently, I worked at three organic vegetable farms across the U.S. In 2022, my debut poetry collection Return Flight was published by Milkweed Editions, and it has been featured in the New York Times Book Review, On Being's “Poetry Unbound,” Harriet Books, and more. Currently, I am a Hivemind Member of the Dancing on Desks podcast. In my spare time, you can find me climbing rocks, singing by a river, eating a popsicle, or planning my next adventure.

If you're keen, check out my Substack rewilding for short reflections on writing, farming, and life on the Oregon Coast.
