In July 2026, I will begin my five-year term as Maine's seventh poet laureate. Each year of my service I hope to offer a limited number of free or low-cost events at Maine schools, libraries, or other venues that could not otherwise afford to host me. My priority will be underserved communities. If you are interested in scheduling an event with me but have little or no funding to do so, please fill out this application and I will be in touch.
