Nerd | Amateur Mountaineer | Chicagoan

A graduate of the University of Illinois at Chicago, I received my BA in English with a Concentration in Creative Writing. I am an attentive writer and editor, who creates novels, shorts stories, and endless amounts of fanfiction. While I spend much of my time working on projects that are business focused in my day job, I also make sure to carve out time for creative projects, both original and transformative.

Growing up in the Midwest and spending nearly every Winter and Summer break in the Rockies, I have found a deep appreciation for what spending time in nature can do for my life and my writing. While my love of the outdoors doesn’t stop me from spending hours playing video games with my friends and chugging coffee at my desk while I write, loving the outdoors frames my writing and enhances the environment I am able to build for the reader. I strive to bring my varied experiences and loves together on every creative endeavor I take on.
