About The Author

After getting tossed out of UMBC, he spent a decade swinging a hammer before landing in the IT world, where he began a consulting business.

In retrospect, he always wanted to be an author—he just didn’t know it. One day, in a fit of boredom induced by the Covid lockdowns, he sat behind a keyboard and began giving life to the characters and worlds rattling around in his head—stories created during other fits of boredom, when he really should have been paying attention in class.

He grew up on Tolkien, Robert Jordan, Neal Stephenson, C.S. Forester, Timothy Zahn, Tom Clancy, L.E. Modesitt Jr., and countless others. Later, he discovered Lee Child, Clive Cussler, Brandon Sanderson, and James S.E. Correy.

When he isn’t doing home improvements, cruising the Magothy River, climbing mountains, pushing pedals, kicking foam pads, or avoiding his day job, he’s writing. For the love of the Gods, buy his books so he can keep justifying the latter.

(He’ll keep doing it, regardless. Might as well humor him.)

He lives in Maryland with his wife and German shepherd.
