I write speculative fiction that brings the extraordinary crashing into the ordinary with horror, heart and humor. My work has been featured in publications such as Graveside Press, Uncharted Magazine, and Rebellion LIT. My short story "The Last Time My Twin Destroyed The World" was runner-up in the 2024 New England Science Fiction & Fantasy Short Story Contest. I am currently submitting my debut novel, Edge Country, to agents.
My one-shot horror comic The Secret Lives of Demon Hunters is currently being illustrated by Jack Van Thomme. Jack has also illustrated my short comic Patches Rebellion, which will soon appear in the Blood Coven Moon Magic anthology. My short comic The Witch of Hallowed Creek will also soon be published by Lifeline Comics in their Witch Anthology, illustrated by Cicadako.
I am a member of the neurodivergent community, and my experiences inspire my writing.
I am also a part of the Science Ficton & Fantasy Writers Association and the Horror Writers Association. When I am not writing or reading I am either training for a marathon with my wife or working as a librarian at the Baltimore County Public Library, where I lead creative writing programs.
I have also undertaken a life-long quest for the world’s greatest hot sauce.
