She is the graduate of the Queens University MFA program\, where she studied under renown authors\, Claudia Rankine and Ada Limon. In 2012\, her poetry chapbook\, Real Girls Have Real Problems was published by Jacar Press.

A&T University in 2011. Upon relocating to Wilmington\, NC\, she started the Athenian Press- a BIPOC bookstore and resource center for women\, femme\, non-binary\, and trans writers and artists.  There she taught as an English professor and held the role of Community Outreach Director at the YWCA\, among other advocacy titles with various nonprofits. Her work has been published widely and speaks to womanhood\, anti-racism\, identity\, and generational trauma. \nAbigail G.
