After growing up in the small town of Onalaska in Wisconsin I contracted a serious case of gypsy disease. For the next 21 years I traveled all over the world with the USAF. The experiences I garnered are the seeds for many of my stories. The experiences from the numerous deployments I had in the Air Force has given me enough fodder for stories for the rest of my life. Although I started writing military science fiction trying to emulate my favorite author John Ringo. I recently started writing horror and was a 2019 Dragon Awards finalist. In 2020 I'll be trying a new genre.
