Uprooted from his post-graduate picket-fence check-box life trajectory by a series of unfortunate events at the age of twenty-five, the author has spent the last third of his life actively getting lost and stumbling across adventures in a wide variety of places across the globe.

 

A lifelong fantasy and science fiction buff, he was lured in at a young age by the discovery of a well-worn copy of The Two Towers on his mother's bookshelf, and Tolkien became the gateway drug to a not-at-all misspent youth of fantasy world building, role-playing adventures with friends, and online gaming that eventually co-mingled into a pretty lucrative career in entrepreneurship and digital nomadry. 

 

These days he splits his time between the U.S., Eastern Europe, and S.E. Asia, plus anywhere else in-between his "home bases" that can make the pursuit of his interests just a little bit more... interesting.
