After dedicating two decades to military service, I embarked on a meaningful second career in social work, where I found my calling as a chemical dependency counselor, helping individuals and families navigate the challenging path to recovery. This rewarding work eventually led me to the security field, where I applied my diverse experience and skills gained from both military and social service backgrounds.

Now enjoying retirement, I share my home with my wife and daughter, and have discovered a new passion that draws on my life experiences: writing. I craft novels and short stories that weave together the human experiences I’ve witnessed throughout my varied career journey. Through my writing, I aim to entertain readers while perhaps offering glimpses into the resilience, complexity, and hope that define the human spirit.
