A New England native, Seth had a storybook childhood growing up in Connecticut. He graduated college at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington in 1993 and transplanted himself in the Pacific Northwest soon after.

Immediately falling in love with northwest topography, Seth made the most of it becoming an experienced hiker, whitewater rafting guide, mountain climber (alright, his friends dragged him up a couple of NW peaks) and skier/snowboarder. Seth now resides on Florida's Gulf coast, trying not to be distracted by dolphins and manatees swimming by.

A serial entrepreneur, Seth has created and partnered with several cutting edge healthcare companies and helped launch two magazines.

Patriot X and HireHeroes USA

For every copy of my thriller Patriot X sold in 2021, I donate a portion of author proceeds and an hour of volunteer time to HireHeroes USA.

HireHeroes USA helps military vets, transitioning military and their spouses find jobs and start businesses in the civilian world. I am honored to partner with this great organization and these even greater people who serve or have served our country.

“To his relief, the curtains were drawn shut. He didn't really want to explain himself to whoever was staying there what he was doing acting like a flying squirrel outside of their hotel room.”
