About
Graphic designer, grant writer and IT guy in the Kansas City non-profit sector for 10 years. I am interested in mythic literature, poetry and the place of traditional forms of art in new media.
This site is a public notebook for ideas, thoughts and snippets that I’ll be constantly adding, editing and updating in the hope that they will grow with me. I can’t emphasize enough that, as a notebook, this is all draft material. Feel free to comment, critique, praise or lambast anything here. That’s really the point. A place that inspires me to write.
At home, I live with my wife, Megan, and my cat, Loki. Megan is an amazing researcher who is still finding her focus, and Loki is loud, playful little female tyrant with a fondness for mealtimes.
