about
georgia (they/she) is a writer and shapeshifter from coastal rhode island. their interests and experiences range from education to organizing, performance to art to audio journalism. georgia is the co-creator of the acclaimed youth climate podcast Inherited (Critical Frequency, 2020).
georgia’s chimeric work tends towards the speculative, the satirical, and the extravagant. they are a student in the cross-genre MFA in Writing at UCSD, where they also teach. they are also a 2025 alum of the Clarion Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers’ Workshop.
in their limited spare time, georgia draws, paints, watches birds, officiates weddings, climbs fake rocks, swims in the real ocean, and strives to become ungovernable.
