Author Engineer
I'm a former firefighter, current staff engineer who writes stories I'd want to read. I live with my family and dogs who have no respect for personal boundaries.
My debut novel is currently on submission to publishers and literary agents.
I write with heart and humor — stories about flawed people making questionable decisions in worlds that are trying to kill them. The kind of books where you laugh on one page and hold your breath on the next.
My debut novel is currently out on submission. More to come.
By day, I'm a staff automation engineer building things that work at scale. I've spent my career across backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and platform engineering — solving hard problems with pragmatic code.
Before tech, I was a firefighter and paramedic. The through-line is the same: stay calm, think clearly, and fix the thing that's on fire.
