I write stories of friendship, of finding beauty in the grotesque, of finding magic in the mundane; stories about building bridges, about burning bridges, about growing trees, about turning trees into bridges, and the ways strangers find common ground. 

My Young Adult series and New Adult novel were released by Epic Press in Fall 2016. 

My short stories have been published in 3 Elements Review, Wild Musette, Kingdoms in the Wild, Lamplit Underground, and I Must Be Off. I was shortlisted in Glimmer Train's "Family Matters" writing contest in 2015. 

 I am a graduate of the Master of Fine Arts program in Creative Writing at the University of San Francisco and live in Los Angeles with my gorgeous wife, fun-loving daughter, anxious dog, and indifferent cat. By the time you read this, I will probably have another cat.
