My creative journey began in Los Angeles, where I studied film with aspirations of becoming a filmmaker. While my path eventually evolved from the camera to the page, that early training never left me. Today, my fiction is heavily influenced by cinematic storytelling and a lifelong fascination with art in all its forms—from the rhythm of a great soundtrack to the structure of visual design and literature.
Writing has been the baseline of my life for as long as I can remember. When I was a child, a short story I penned was selected for a Young Authors Association competition, an early validation that sparked a realization that storytelling could be more than just a hobby. That passion only deepened over the years, transforming into a love for crafting narratives that explore wonder, nostalgia, and the profound human connections that shape who we become.
While a full-time tech career and family life keep my days packed, I am always carving out quiet corners of time for the arts. Currently, I am developing an expansive multi-book science fiction series featuring a young ensemble cast, alongside a contemporary Middle Grade novel.
When I’m not at my desk working on my next book, you can usually find me reading, jamming on the saxophone, or in the garage restoring my ’58 Ford Fairlane—a hands-on reminder that some things are entirely worth preserving. I live in Northern California with my wife and two children, finding endless wonder in being a father and drawing constant inspiration from the tender, cherished moments we share together.
