Honors College Theses
The Jungle Down the Street, the Town Across the Bridge, All is Very Well is a series of short, nonfiction essays attempting to paint several portraits—regional, ecological, familial, and personal.

The piece attempts to blend multiple narrative and thematic arcs through the use of humor, anecdote, and historical research.
