I've never really considered myself a writer. I was always told I was supposed to be an artist. Instead, I began a career as a tree trimmer and a tower climber, and have been doing one or the other for the last twenty years.

But over those twenty years, I noticed that I had developed a knack at making people laugh with my ridiculous imagination. I started writing down my silly stories and am delighted to have acquired a dedicated following of readers over the last decade.

I draw my inspiration from my own family life. My wife and I along with our two daughters live in a small, crappy house in Davison, MI. My stories might make one think we are the most dysfunctional family on the planet, but nothing could be further from the truth. We have our rough spots like any family, but know our home is full of love and laughter.
