Rick is a married-with-kids, hard working self-made man with a passion for story-telling (and hyphenation). He was born, raised and continues to live on the north shore of Lake Erie where he spends his days defending the corporate world from hackers and his nights balancing family time with creative pursuits, and let's admit it -- some quality PC gaming time.

Rick's first work, Susan's Plague - a dystopian sci-fi work - has been well-received on Wattpad. His second work, Prepper, is a tale of adventure and survival and is currently undergoing a professional edit prior to an indie publishing run.
