: About Me

I am a 28-year-old entrepreneur and writer. I live near St. Louis, MO; where I was born. However, I have not always lived there. When I was 19, I hitchhiked to California to find bigger and better things than what a small town in the mid west had to offer. After a long, exciting adventure, I recently decided to settle down and move back to MO so I could be closer to my family.

I've been through a lot of things in my life, and I've learned a lot about myself and human behavior. I am a very spiritual person, though not religious, and I promote love and self understanding where ever possible.

I am currently in the process of writing two books. One of which is fiction, and the other non-fiction. The book of fiction is a middle grade chapter book called Dog Train. The primary theme of Dog Train is faith. The main principle outlined is that the Universe is acting in ways that we could never imagine with or without our knowledge or participation to bring solutions to problems whose existence we may or may not be aware of.

The book of non-fiction is a memoir of my life, and a guide to living with peace of mind, integrity, and serenity.

I would love to receive help from a publisher who is interested in profit sharing, not taking everything from me. I am intelligent and capable, and am willing to put in the work that will lead to my being able to share my gift of hope with the world.

UNIVERSAL MIND Excerpt, Chapter 6 It wasn't only my career that was taking off. My whole life was evolving into something spectacular. I was volunteering with a non-profit organizations by facilitating HIV/AIDS support groups, I became involved in other community activities and was maintaining commitments. I was finally being a part of something much larger than myself. I was just entering into adult hood. I was out on my own - I mean REALLY on my own and I was doing really well. I was even beginning to see a different side of myself than I had ever seen before. And most of all, I learned ...
