As a writer, he likes to create morally ambiguous worlds full of characters who struggle to fight for good even when faced with seemingly insurmountable evil. He enjoys reading, writing, drawing, tabletop role-playing games, and more hobbies than he realistically has time for. A full-time English teacher, he lives in Pittsburgh with his wife, Dominique, and three children. His epic fantasy series, The Bard's Heresy, includes The Gift of the Guardians, The Blackguard's Bond, and The Key to the Kingdom (Coming September 2025).
