He had the opportunity to be a part of the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word the past 2 years in a row and in this years CSFW was the runner-up for the most valuable poet of the year award.
He has published 2 volumes of poetry and has been features on the Live at Capital Slam CD for the past 2 years.
