Military Service
From 1998 to 2005, I served in the Royal Westminster Regiment as an infantry soldier. During my service, I deployed to Bosnia as a NATO peacekeeper in 2000.

Where ideas become prose
Diverse Background
Writing is my passion, and throughout my life I've taken to the pen to express myself. While writing has always been a large part of my life, my background is more diverse than only being a writer.
Working in the Trades
When I left the military, I started working in the trades as a welder/fabricator. Choosing this hands-on career path bestowed upon me the skills that made me a sought-after DIY content writer and the lead author of No Grid Survival Projects.
Diving into Martial Arts
In my forties, I decided to pursue my lifelong desire to train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, kickboxing, and MMA. Despite often being the oldest student in the class, I have rapidly advanced to the rank of purple belt in Jiu-Jitsu in only three years.
