Who am I?

My name’s Chris Kubik Cedeño, which I like to shorten to CKC. I’ve been writing since I was a teenager, hoping to capture some of the uniqueness to my life — growing up in a military family, Latino/mixed household, and, of course, navigating masculinity in a way that felt productive and positive to me.

Now, that’s manifested in a lot of writing, plenty of photography, and some filmmaking. After recently completing my MFA at Rutgers-Camden, I found myself searching for a casual vehicle for some thoughts, writing, and my photos.

So here we are, namsayin. Thanks for coming along for the ride.
