Altadena, California, United States
Poet, Butoh Dancer
I am a poet and Butoh dancer. After growing up in and around Altadena, I moved to an island in the Puget Sound region of Washington State for 18 years and in 2008 moved back to Altadena. I have over 50 poems published in 28 publications both online and print, and my first book, History of Butoh, was published in 2012 by Writ Large Press. I read and dance frequently around Los Angeles, and I am currently completing a chapbook about growing up in Los Angeles titled Cul-de-Sac.
