Isabelle (Isa) Riedl is a poet from the San Francisco Bay Area.  Her ardor for radical print ephemera grew out of the DIY and punk scenes of her upbringing.  She is interested in our sense of truth, both in her practices as a publisher and a poet. Her work centers around her daily life which is as mundane as anyone’s. At the core, Isa’s work is concerned with the universally subjective experience of being a person. She graduated from Brooklyn College with a BFA in 2025, after an unconventional education traveling around the country and abroad. She has received the Corinne Steel Award for her English Honors Thesis, the Academy of American Poets University & College Poetry Prize, and the Rosen Fellowship for her free literary paper, The Goose Egg. 

In conjunction with her studies as a MFA poetry canditate at Brooklyn College, she has taught both ENGL 1010 in Spring 2026 and ENGL 1012 in Fall 2026 as an Adjunct Lecturer.
