About Me


I was a comics and cartoon-loving kid. It didn't take long for me to realize that what I really loved--besides flashy panels and the seizure-inducing lights Pikachu exploded onto the screen every Saturday morning--were the stories.
​
So I started telling my own.
My dream is to be a writer for the page, the screen, and for games. When I'm not writing, I work as a Digital Video Livestream Specialist for the City of Longmont. I volunteer as the middle/high school youth leader at our local church where I beat them at Smash Bros as often as possible. My wife and I run an Airbnb from home and foster rescue puppies when we don't have guests. If I'm home I'm likely indulging in stories, playing games with friends, or making my own card games.
Originally from Ohio, my wife and I now live in Colorado with our pup, Ember.
