He is a carpenter by trade and student of linguistics, literature and languages. Within the Steel City literature scene, he has spoken at the Lawson St readings, the Pocketbook readings, and been printed under non de plume in their first magazine. He has printed two runs of concept poetry under the print— FÖRTRIHT.
