Former NASA rocket scientist, now a writer (screenplays and my first novel) and composer of original music of all types.

I'm a first generation immigrant from Mexico. I studied at the University of Redlands and at California State University, Los Angeles. I have degrees in both Music and Physics.

I've had two careers. Professional musician (drums/percussion) and system engineer working on flight projects like Voyager, Galileo, Spitzer Space Telescope, and Mars Observer.

I am retired now and spend my time writing and composing.

I write pieces focused on Hispanic characters and place them in not-often-seen-or-thought-about situations.
