I first got the idea for the Timothy Eli Series after my first year in college. I looked at all the terrible fictional character that were presented to kids with witchcraft and all these evil influences out there for kids and I felt a calling from God to make an alternative and that led to the idea of making a Christian Science Fiction Novel and The Timothy Eli premise.​ ​ I have had a love for the science fiction genre and was influenced by a lot of fiction novels and Manga stories and those influences show through in my writings. I am extremely religious and influenced by the Holy Bible and it also has a strong influence on my writing as well. I live in Florida with my beautiful wife Bianca and our dog Rocko. I graduated from the University of Florida in 2007 and I have been writing for almost ten years.
