I am a native of Ohio and currently live in northern Massachusetts with my family. I have been writing since I was in sixth grade when I wrote "Loss of Innocence," a short story about a teddy bear that is alive but slowly deteriorates as his owner and lifelong companion grows up and loses his imagination.

It was at this point in my life that I knew I wanted to write. I enjoyed the magic of being able to create a unique world full of new realities in my mind–one that nobody had ever seen before. Since then, I have written over 150 short stories, several of which are in my recent anthology "Ruins of the Mind" and I am currently working on several novels.
