In writing and reading, my fidelity lies in cultivating the incredible through language. As a poet, it is important to me to consistently engage in a challenging and vibrant ongoing dialogue about the literary arts, specifically poetics.

I regularly attend a diverse selection of reading series in Portland to stay abreast of the complexities and nuances of the contemporary poem, poet, and audience.

Engaging with local artists is important to me, and I started the Boisson/ Artiste blog to provide one particular venue for artists to engage with their community through speaking about their work.

My poems have been published in various journals, recently "The Oregonian" and Publication Studio's "Weekday."
