I'm a freelance writer, singer-songwriter, and illustrator. I spent some time as an Army medic where I jumped out of planes for a living and my ankles still haven't forgiven me. When I'm not writing or making some sort of structured noise, I'm probably playing video games and picking apart their stories. Go ahead, ask me about pseudo-narrative dissonance in first-person shooters.
Currently writing a book, “Bring Your Gun To Work Day,” about my military training, combat deployments, and the long road back to finding peace.
Available for any and all sorts of creative endeavors: sketch, script, songwriting, and other s-words. Snakes.
