My award-winning short story "All Hallows Eve in the Shrine of Dead Celebrities" was published in the Winter 2008 issue of Rosebud. I am currently working on a coming-of-age crime novel, and a few weird short stories.

My essay "To Kingdom Business Bound: Theocratic Corporatism's Mimetic Ambition to Create a Global Christian Order" won an honorable mention in the 2011 Raven Foundation Essay Contest. You can read it at: http://www.ravenfoundation.org/contests/previous-contests

The word apokalypsis does not actually refer to total global destruction, as many would assume. (Don't be disappointed.) It comes from a Greek word meaning to unveil or reveal.

I am also an armchair cultural anthropologist and philosopher, data analyst, world traveler, devoted spouse, "Zentecostal" humanist, and much more! Did I mention self-absorbed?
