POETRY & PHOTOGRAPHY COLLECTIONS
Written, curated, and independently published by me! All my books are limited print to preserve intention in a world of excess. My most recent collection is SEPARATEBUTEQUAL released on 3.01.2025.
My love for books started when I was a kid, with the scholastic book fairs and the accelerated reader program at my elementary school. My mom took notice and started taking me to Borders - I'd hideout between the shelves, while she enjoyed her Starbucks. It was pure heaven.
Bookstores have always been the birthplace for so much of my imagination and inspiration. Yes, I sell my books here on my website, but I also work my butt off to get my books in bookstores where they can reach people who also want to be inspired by aesthetically pleasing shelves of books. Please keep shopping in person, because bookstores are vital to our communities.
My books can be found in the following handpicked bookstores:
Los Angeles, CA
Sunny's Bookshop (Tarzana)
Village Well (Culver City)
Hennessey+Ingalls (DTLA)
Chevalier's Books (Larchmont Village)
Barnes & Noble (Studio City)
The Pop-Hop Books Co-op (Highland Park)
San Diego, CA
Libelula Books & Co
