1/2 Humbled to be the first poet to perform at the Super Bowl! I'm so excited to place poetry at the forefront of the most watched U.S. television broadcast, & to honor 3 heroes of the coronavirus pandemic. Can’t wait for the world to hear their stories! https://t.co/UBLqZhZpTA

Today I say goodbye to my decade-long role @ Monash University. I’ve taken a package, will use this gift to focus on my PhD. It’s been a great chapter in my book of life. I’m looking forward to the next one. For all this I’m grateful. Thank you to everyone who helped me get here.
