Thank you for visiting my website! I am a poet currently based in New York City. I was born and raised in the Inland Empire in Southern California. I currently teach creative writing as an assistant adjunct professor at Columbia University, where I also earned my MFA and was a recipient of the Linda Corrente Fellowship. My work appears and is forthcoming in journals such as Calyx and other magazines.

I’m passionate about building genuine connections and always eager to explore new opportunities for meaningful collaboration. If you’d like to connect or discuss potential projects, please reach out here or at cynthiarenclifford [at] gmail [dot] com.

Although I’m not active on common social media platforms, you can stay updated on upcoming poetry readings and other mischief here.
