Since 2017, I've curated and co-hosted the Village Voice, a bi-monthly segment on WGBH Boston Public Radio featuring poems that speak to current events, sociopolitical issues, and other timely topics. Each episode prompts conversations that explore our times and our lives in a more nuanced, human-centered way through the lens of poetry.
