Current Project

This is my first novel! The few people who have read it say it’s a story that deservers the extra attention and reach that traditional publishing can provide. Getting published takes a bit of time, and I want a wide audience to meet Lucy, in this Wednesday meets  Pretty In Pink novel, set with a group of youth group kids, that reads like a John Hughes film. Pray that the publishers that see this find it as viable as I do!

I also have a long resume of “former” things I did or was. …Former career in food industry, former career in retail, former youth pastor, former DJ, former associate pastor, former jazz musician... I’m not a quitter, just well versed in my vocational experience.

Currently, I orchestrate marketing pieces for independent booksellers. When I am not working or writing, I am likely reading, listening to records, engaging in meaningful conversations, and exploring how light shines brightest in the unlikeliest of places. 

My family and I live on the Central Coast of California.

If you want to know one thing about me it’s this: I hate talking about myself.

But, you are on my site so I should tell you one or two things, just in case you don’t know me…

I am an author and speaker with a passion for telling stories and sharing thoughts that challenge perceptions and reveal unexpected truths. I hope my words speak to those who have felt out of place, misunderstood, or at odds with their surroundings, while also offering hope, healing, and a renewed perspective on faith and community.

I’m so honored that you stopped by to see what I have to say. My musings can be seen pretty regularly above, but if you would like to have a deeper look at what I am working on, with some exclusive content each month, I’d love for you to subscribe to my newsletter. Truth be told, my newsletter will likely be an email you get from me; but I promise it’ll be worth your time. And I promise I won’t sell your email to anyone else. Just you, me, and some thoughts you will not see on the site.
