The Story So Far...
You'll often find me sporting a dreamy, far-off look or with my nose stuck in a book. I pursue stories relentlessly, seeking out the best and brightest in the sci-fi and fantasy genre. Books, movies, TV, music, stage productions...I gobble them all up with a bookwormish fervor.
I write critical analysis and pop culture lists for Tor.com.
You can find my book reviews and various explorations of storytelling at The Quill To Live: Your guide to every world but this one.
In April 2020, a sudden-but-welcome job change spurred me to don the freelance gauntlets and try my hand as a pen for hire. Since relinquishing my grip on the corporate torch, I've joined the ranks of Catena Media as a contributing writer and iGaming Business North America as a features writer.
