Her poetry has been published in Freeze Ray Magazine and can be found on the SlamFind YouTube channel. She is currently a co-writer and voice actor for the sci-fi comedy podcast Solutions to Problems.

The open mic begins at 8:00 and the feature performs at approximately 10:00. An open poetry slam in the 8×8 series will follow. The show is 18+ (ID required) and the cover charge is $3.
