Michigan native with post-collegiate layovers in Chicago, Houston and now Los Angeles.

I've done numerous things to pass the time and pay the bills, including but not limited to: teaching, making coffee, counseling campers, editing the written word, researching the judicial system, and delivering car parts.

I currently work as an associate producer for an independent documentary director, and as an assistant in the shadowy Underworld of film marketing.

I wish March Madness was year-round, and if I didn't want to write for television, I'd probably open a combination used-books store and pub.
