Born and raised in southern New Jersey. I received a degree in English Literature form the University of Arizona. After 14 years in the insurance industry I have rediscovered my love of writing and storytelling after finding a new voice in my work. After the loss of my Mother-in-law, I found myself questioning my path in life and whether i was using my gift of writing to better the world or letting it waste away sitting behind a desk. As a father, how do I tell my sons to chase their dreams if I am not willing to chase my own. I started Wandering Within as a way of reaching people with the power of storytelling. My message is to help others find the spark within themselves by venturing into our minds and challenging different aspects of life.
