About Me

Hi! I’m Ginger (she/her), and I’m a writer and poet living on the Colorado-New Mexico border with my partner and our beloved troublemakers, Winnie, Olive, and Bug. I’m a teaching artist-in-training, and I’m passionate about building and supporting strong artist communities.

My poetry has appeared or is forthcoming in PRISM International, Beaver, The Boiler, Phoebe, Grist, Cleaver, Heavy Feather Review, Ghost City Review, Sky Island Journal, and elsewhere, and my essays have appeared in The Poetry Lab’s Resource Center and The Writing Cooperative. I have a bachelor’s degree in English Literature as well as a certificate in Integrated Studies in Science, Engineering, and Society, from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. I’m fueled by coffee, nature, and reality TV.

I’m also a freelance nonfiction editor, and I write about poetry, writing craft, & publishing on my Substack, Effing the Ineffable.
