Biography
In April of 2023, everything changed. I had two strokes that left the entire left side of my body paralyzed, and just like that, my life cracked wide open. Work? Gone. My daily rhythm? Obliterated. Depression came barreling in.
But somehow, writing stayed.
At first, it was just survival. Scribbling thoughts, dumping feelings, trying to make sense of a life that no longer made sense. No grand breakthroughs. No motivational poster moments. Just words. Raw, messy, honest words. One after another. Day after day.
And then something shifted.
Those words turned into scenes. The scenes became stories. And slowly, I realized I wasn't just coping anymore. I was creating. I was rebuilding.
Before all of this, I was always a sci-fi nerd. Big fan of wild adventures, intense action, and stories that know how to punch you in the heart just as much as the face. I never stopped loving that stuff. So now, that's what I write: fast-paced, emotionally grounded fiction that blends the epic with the deeply personal. A little chaos, a little romance, a lot of soul.
Becoming a writer was never part of the plan. Life rerouted me, hard. But now that I'm here? I'm all in. And I'm not going anywhere.
