I was born in New York and started writing poetry there just before moving to Florida when I was eleven. I have never fully stopped writing poetry. Some years were very fruitful and some were barren, but still managed a couple of dozen poems in. I am not formaly schooled in poetry. / / I fell in love with filmmaking in highschool through a good friend of mine. We entered film school together after graduating highschool. Then, after two years I abruptly dropped out to follow a more spiritual vocation. I had always been a practicing Catholic and I made a few inquires into monasticism and the Franciscan Order. I was rejected for postulancy for personal reasons. / In 2008 I self-published my first poetry collection titled VACANCY. Later I started a film review website (with my pal from highschool) concentrating on obscure horror films. www.strictlysplatter.com . Today I continue writing poetry and updating my horror film website.
