I write short stories about the quiet moments that change us. Grief. Hope. The absurdities of everyday life.

I grew up in Massachusetts, where summer meant baseball and winter meant shoveling my nana's driveway before school. After twenty-eight years of New England cold, I headed west and eventually settled in Arizona's White Mountains in 2020.

I started my writing career with middle grade and young adult fantasy novels published on Amazon. After five books and hundreds of thousands of words, I found myself burned out and searching for what I actually wanted to say. That's when I turned to short fiction stories that let me explore character and emotion without the machinery of epic plots.

I've written dozens of short stories since then. These days, I write for the connection. With readers. With ideas. With the quiet moments that matter.

For over 35 years, I've worked in IT. I also spent years photographing high school sports and rodeos. Work that taught me to anticipate moments before they happened, a skill that found its way into my storytelling.

My wife and I got married in Certaldo, Italy, during a three-month stay that still feels like something from a novel. These days you'll find us hiking, soaking in mountain air, or watching Hallmark Christmas movies.
