Cincinnati Public Library - Published Media

Cincinnati Public Library Blog

I began contributing to the Cincinnati Public Library's public-facing blog and social media accounts via informational blog posts and videos in April 2020.
I currently sit on the Library's LGBTQ+ programming committee through which ​I started a virtual series on local, national, and historical queer poets called
​Queer Poetry Spotlight Series. See below.
