Justin Bello’s background in law, finance, political science, and engineering gives his fiction a sharp, unusual lens. He’s always been drawn to how people think, what drives them, and what happens when systems — or people — break down.
His stories mix the real and the unreal, often grounded in the tension between control and chaos. He writes to ask questions, chase meaning, and explore the edges of humanity.
Justin lives with his wife and sons near Salt Lake City, Utah. When he’s not writing, he enjoys being outdoors, practicing martial arts, and fantasizing about owning a workshop to tinker in.
