I have an eclectic background ranging from architecture to business consulting. Having many voices in your head helps when developing characters for a story - as long as they go away when you want them to. I love to write the kind of stories that I want to see. My love of storytelling comes from my parents - my father mainly. Through his stories, I learned about life's brutality and kindness, its mystery and revelation. Writing for me is about having a voice. Some people make soaring speeches others dance and act. I write.
