I'm a creative writer who strives to create enthralling characters with well-balanced action and dialogue, builds believable worlds through a passion for detail, and connects to readers with easy-to-read stories. Years of experience in roleplaying games and a wide range of preferred reading have molded me into an intuitive storyteller and given me the flexibility to pursue multiple genres. As a writer, I'm accustomed to working on projects alone, but have considerable experience working in team environments. I consider myself a passionate learner and, during my time at Valparaiso University, began multiple book-length manuscripts, wrote short fiction, designed and playtested an RPG Module (included here), and began the development of a video game as a collaboration with the Valparaiso University Computer Science Capstone Project. Finding new ways to grow and learn as a writer and individual is something I consider very important.
