His first book, Album Rock (2018), is a work of creative nonfiction and poetry investigating a curious photograph taken in Newfoundland in the 1850s. He won the 2020 CBC Poetry Prize for "Tickling the Scar," a poem about walking the Lachine Canal during the early days of the pandemic. He has previously been awarded the NLCU Fresh Fish Award for Emerging Writers, The Fiddlehead's Ralph Gustafson Prize for Best Poem, and VANL-CARFAC's Critical Eye Award for art writing. He is a graduate of the MFA program at NSCAD University.view less
