2020-present:

National Catholic Reporter, "The radical, healing message of 'A Christmas Carol'"

America Magazine, "After a hellish year, Jesuit playwright Bill Cain's '9 Circles' reminds us of the power of storytelling"

National Catholic Reporter, "New novel asks: What if next pandemic kills off male species?"

My features and essays often explore the intersections of storytelling, spirituality, gender, and the arts. Along with the essays posted here, I have written half a dozen book reviews for Grab the Lapels, a travel article for Baker Street Babes, another feature for National Catholic Reporter in 2016, and a biweekly column for The Observer of Notre Dame and Saint Mary's from 2015 to 2016. 

Creative writing projects include short fiction published in Slippery Elm Literary Journal and Bridge: The Bluffton Literary Journal; poetry published in Indiana's Best Emerging Poets and America's Emerging Poets: Illinois, Minnesota, and Wisconsin; and an original adaptation of Euripides' Medea, directed for Voices Found Repertory in 2018.
