Delving into my background and the influences that shape my writing might seem straightforward, but, like a good novel, there's always more than meets the eye. I've been fortunate enough to call several continents home, a journey less about accumulating stamps in a passport and more about collecting perspectives – some of which have been more enlightening than others.

I've always appreciated classic Sci-Fi authors for their imaginative storytelling with thoughtful commentary on society, and they have been a significant influence. Still, while their work has shaped much of my perspective, I also stay attuned to the evolving landscape of the genre.

My stories are fundamentally driven by their characters. I draw inspiration from real life, with its diverse range of people and experiences. Whether it's the mundane or the remarkable, I focus on capturing the essence of human experience, making each story accessible and engaging regardless of the setting.

I've started a blog on my Goodreads author's page if you're interested in more thoughts and ramblings.
