I’m a storyteller. Sometimes that means books. Sometimes it means photographs. I step into my creative mode and there’s no knowing where I might be swept off to. If you recognize the reference, we’ll get along fine.

I taught myself writing the same way I learned programming, the guitar, and photography; by trying things, messing them up, and keeping at it. I spent many uncomfortable nights shooting high school sports and rodeos, and more than twelve years writing novels for kids and teens. These days I’m enjoying writing adult fiction.

I grew up in the Boston area, where summers meant baseball and winters meant shoveling my nana’s driveway. After almost three decades of New England cold, I headed west and settled in Arizona’s White Mountains in 2020.

My wife and I got married in Certaldo, Italy, during a three‑month stay that still feels like something from a Hallmark movie. When I’m not writing, you’ll probably find us hiking, enjoying the mountain air, or watching Hallmark Christmas movies.
