Author
I'm an aspiring author with a day job in IT. I often turn to writing to get my mind off of work and tech, allowing myself to drift away in a story. Something about coming up with a story that only exists in my head and putting it onto paper is an enjoyment I can't even explain.
I live with my wife, Morgan, and our tortoiseshell cat, Rayne. Morgan is one of my strongest motivators to keep writing—even when I don't feel like it or am stuck. She pushes me because she knows how much I love doing this, even when I want to quit because I hate the last 1,000-plus words I've just written.
Over the years, I've written many short stories, and last year I finished my first novel, which took two years to write. Even though that was a huge accomplishment, none of those felt ready to share—until now. Buried in Green has been years in the making, and I'm so excited to finally share it with you. This is a story I felt needed to be told, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it.

New Thriller
A death on a billionaire's eco-estate is ruled an accident. One insider sees the cracks in the fresh coat—and what's buried underneath.
A Novel
Mock cover design
On the surface, Victor Hale's estate is a beacon of clean energy and second chances. Beneath the emerald gloss, Elena—his most trusted assistant—sees what the paint is hiding. When a worker turns up dead and the town accepts the official story, Elena uncovers a chain of favors, debts, and disappearances that point back to the mansion on the hill.
"The ground is still wet where they washed away the blood. From the hill, the solar field looks like a lake of dark glass. Victor called it progress. Caleb called it a paycheck. I call it what it is now: a mirror that only reflects the surface."
