My first collection of poems, The Body Is No Machine, was published by New Issues in 2007 and won the 2008 Devil’s Kitchen Reading Award in Poetry. I work at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, where I organize the Writers & Critics Series and teach courses in creative writing and gender studies.
