I'm a philosopher of religion with a background in analytic philosophy, Christian theology, and eastern philosophy and religion.

Growing up on the works of Edgar Allan Poe and 1970s horror films, I've had a life-long fascination with the darker side of human nature. Albert Camus captured my attention as an undergraduate, and early in my career I took a deep interest in Soren Kierkegaard. In 2015, Stephen King re-ignited my long-standing love of dark fiction literature.
I'm currently nearing completion of two dark fiction novels (Gel, Shadow at the Door), which explore psychopathology and ostensible paranormal phenomena. A third novel (A Person You May Know) is a psychological thriller that explores psychopathology and social media addiction.
