Originally from NYC and now living in Hong Kong, in early 2015 I left the professional world to pursue my true passions full time: writing, coding, and traveling. After two novels, two screenplays, and multiple apps and published short works, I have yet to look back. My writing, while not all directly about my multi-year journey around the world without flying, has been heavily influenced by the people and places I've been fortunate enough to meet along the way.
