About

I've transitioned through many careers in my life--FDA investigator, FBI analyst, medical writer, FBI comms specialist, French farmer, and (now) writing consultant. It's interesting to reflect and realize most required decent writing.

While I'm technically an author due to some freelance work, my ultimate goal is to author non-fiction books. I'd love to connect with an agent to share a completed manuscript about the four years my wife, children, and I spent farming in France.
