Born and raised just outside Chicago, I've been creating content since the '90s. I wrote, illustrated and published my first short stories (pictured here) before I knew my times tables, not to brag. For many years I tried my hand at professions such as: garbage-man, landscaper, balloon artist, road-kill-picker-upper, hair straightener salesman, street sweeper (the legal kind) and preschool basketball coach, but writing always called to me. I've worked on clients in every industry from video games and gambling to health sciences and finance—and always strive to continuously turn complex briefs into simple ideas. I currently reside in Raleigh, North Carolina, and am on a constant mission to be more interesting than my name would suggest. 

Fun Fact: I once fed 10,000 people with a basketball.

Fun(ny) Fact: I once made a few people laugh, I think. Phone cameras are a lot better now than they used to be.
