My Story
I am an author, physician, and former engineer whose work lives at the intersection of creativity, philosophy, and science. After years caring for patients, I turned toward writing through walking, reflection, and philosophical inquiry. I write fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, often exploring how movement, attention, and curiosity shape meaning. I live, work, and walk in the Pacific Northwest, just east of Seattle, with my black cat, Roo.
