Their first by-line was a 20+ page fairy tale in elementary school, but their first official writing credit came in 2012 for the local newspaper where they became a regular contributor.

SB became an active youth member of Portland, Maine's spoken word poetry scene, Port Veritas, when they began navigating mental health challenges.​ They see poetry as a means of expression, understanding, and survival.

SB completed a BA in Creative Writing at Lesley University in 2018 with minors in Women & Gender Studies and Drama, with intern reporting experience at Cambridge Community Television.

Their poetry has been published in "Nixes Mate Review" and "Crab Fat Magazine."
