He began by writing poetry and published a handful of poems in high school anthologies. He went on to a career in journalism and was recognized by the Wisconsin Newspaper Association with awards for Best Feature Story and Best Investigative News Story. He has often written about Native American issues. He worked for the Bad River Band, Lake Superior Ojibway Tribe for ten years as a teacher and journalist. The story, “The Painting,” is based on Ojibway culture. His book, Equilibrium, is a work of fiction based on the 1996 Ojibway railroad blockade on the Bad River Reservation in Wisconsin.
