The short version? 

I write speculative fiction infused with biblical imagery. Through my stories, I want to Exercise Imagination, Provoke Thought, and Reform Reality.

That's just what I write...but who am I?

I'm a reader, writer, thinker, watcher, dreamer... I'm an introvert with an affinity for puns and hip-hop music. I'm not saying I could beat you in a rap battle, but I'd love to try. I'm also a twin's brother, a Pastor's Kid, and a proud uncle.

Physically, I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, went to college at a university near Dallas, and currently live in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Imaginatively, I've been all over the world - no, worlds. I've been to infinity AND beyond.  I've experienced the side effects of a radioactive spider's bite. I've seen the Stone Table. I've peered into the Mirror of Galadriel. And I've discovered new lands and stories nobody's experienced but me.

Some of my favorite literary influences include C.S. Lewis, Ray Bradbury, J.R.R. Tolkien, Ted Dekker, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Frank Peretti, Edgar Allen Poe, Suzanne Collins, H.G. Wells, Garth Nix, Brandon Sanderson, and more.
