I grew up in San Diego, finishing college at CSUSM with a degree in Computer Science. In the summer of 2002, I worked at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in New Mexico. From there my journey took me to the Bay Area to work at NASA Ames Research Center for a year, then at Lawrence Livermore National Lab for four years. It was during this time that I started tossing around the idea of becoming a writer, so I began writing a journal and notes on a story I was developing. My career, after LLNL, took me to the Naval Postgraduate School, where I worked on a government project called JIEDDO. Now I am in Salt Lake City, working with the Army Corps of Engineers on another government project.
As for my hobbies, I have been reading fantasy and science fiction books ever since I was a teenager. I started with the classics: Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Jordan, then moved on from there. I love reading all different genres of fiction and non-fiction. When it comes to reading, I don’t discriminate.
My other hobbies are skiing, swimming, writing, cooking, and drinking wine! ;)
I also love taking my dog to the park where he causes all kinds of mischief. He is a three year-old, 100 pound, baying, slobbering, English Coonhoud.
I’ve seen this question on many other blogs that I’ve read so I thought I would answer it to: If I was stranded on a deserted island, what three things would I want with me? Answer: A bar & grill with an unlimited supply of food and drinks, a bungalow, and sun glasses … and Copper too but then that would be four things. So I’m cheating, the four things I would want with me would be those.
