About

I live outside Austin, TX with my wife, my mother-in-law, and my three sons who are all under four-years-old. To keep things interesting, we also have four dogs and three cats, plus a bunch of scorpions hiding just out of sight.

My short stories have appeared in print and online in such fine places as Barrelhouse, Third Coast, Cutbank, Wigleaf, and Black Clock, among many others. NOT EVERYONE IS SPECIAL, my debut short story collection will be published in 2019 by 7.13 Books.

Along with my wife and my brother-in-law, I play drums in the band Borrisokane. KUTX called us "synth-punk gloom-wonders" and we were hailed by the Austin Chronicle as one of the Best New Local Acts of 2013. We're currently recording our first full-length album.

The script for my feature film entitled POTENTIAL is attempting to make friends in the world. More soon!
