S.P. was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio. As a teenager, he began his poetic journey in the dive bars of Clifton, Cincinnati’s Gas Light district, immersing himself in poetry and literature.

When his partner was accepted to an art school in the San Francisco Bay Area, they relocated, driving west to start a new chapter in Oakland, California.

S.P. and his partner then headed to Southern California, where they have resided for the past eight years. Currently, he is working on a collection of short stories, one or two odd screenplays, and a constant stream of enigmatic poetry.
