Sean O'Gorman began to write poetry at 15 and kept with it as a way to deal with personal issues and it slowly became a way to communicate with those around him. As a slam poet he has had the opportunity to contribute to more than just slam scenes. It has become a tool in his life that allows him to contribute to fundraiser's of all kinds.
He had the opportunity to be a part of the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word the past 2 years in a row and in this years CSFW was the runner-up for the most valuable poet of the year award.
He has published 2 volumes of poetry and has been features on the Live at Capital Slam CD for the past 2 years.
He is also one of the organizers of Urban Legends poetry slam in Ottawa creating a safe environment for all styles of poetry to be expressed.
