I’m a career Telecommunications professional and US Air Force vet who enjoys writing when I’m not at my day job. As a life-long MT resident and UM alum, I’ve been around the Missoula scene for the last 26 years, having migrated from Helena. I have two beautiful daughters with whom I love to camp, fish, hike and otherwise get lost in Western MT. When I have time, I read the kinds of books that you hold in your hands and that aren’t back-lit, preferably non-fiction. I have a wide variety of musical interests, and seeing my favorites play live is a passionate pursuit. Cooking for family and friends (especially BBQ) is also high on the list, and if there’s time, I also enjoy sleeping.
