I have a degree in Classical Language and Literature, with a focus on Mythology and Drama. Comparative mythology with a specialization in Chinese lore. I have training and experience in narrative, dramatic composition, dramaturgy and performance. On occasion I have been know to engage in the practice of poetry.

The troops of Yin-shang,
Were collected like a forest,
And marshalled in the wilderness of Mu.
[Book of Songs, Poem 236; James Legge, trans.]
