Welcome. I’m Marie — a writer, artist, and organizer based in Queens, New York.
My poems, essays, collages, and reviews have been published in The Believer, Los Angeles Review of Books, The Rumpus, About Place Journal, and elsewhere. I write a very occasional newsletter called Liminal City. I received my MFA in creative writing from Rutgers University.
By day, I work as the Deputy Director at NY Renews, a statewide coalition of hundreds of climate, labor, youth, and community groups organizing for clean energy, union jobs, and a healthier, more affordable New York.
In my past lives, I’ve worked as an editor, educator, and server in many, many restaurants. I also taught critical and creative writing at Rutgers University–Camden, where I organized alongside my colleagues and served as the Media Organizer for my union, the Rutgers Adjunct Faculty Union.
Say hello:
