Who I am
I've been telling stories my entire life. The written word, the spoken word, and the thousands of words a picture is worth have all resonated with me as far back as I can remember. I struggled with communicating when I was young, so finding the medium of literature changed everything.
In middle schools, I conjured up these grandiose stories to fill my head, and in high school, I learned how to put them on paper. The medium of writing has such a unique relationship with people, and I want to make the absolute best of that. I want to inspire, educate, and give hope to people the same way countless other stories have.
I can't even begin to list my influences- George Orwell, Donita K. Paul, Margaret Atwood, to name a few- but let's not ignore video games, which told some of the most amazing stories to me. Bioshock, Ace Attorney, Bloodborne, Final Fantasy, all the greats. They have as much legitimacy as any classic piece of storytelling.
I hope you enjoy your time here and find something in my writing that speaks to you.
Divine Will, Scratch-Built D&D Campaign
Utilizing a world of my own creation with its own pantheon of gods and goddesses, this adventure in an unknown world calls upon all the skills of its participants. Gods walk among men (and dinosaurs) in this rich theological world loosely based on ancient Arab history.
Dissociation and Self-Talk, a Master's Thesis
A showcase of my academic work, this thesis on dissociative tendencies in everyday life and how it influences our self-talk. It was this thesis that helped me secure my Master of the Arts in Experimental Psychology.
