Writing has always been an important part of my life.

My youth saw me into poetic prose and academia. They did not always mesh well together.

Eventually, I went from words to numbers and became an accountant. That was boring and did not last very long.

Zipping through things a bit, I became a musician and an analyst. Then, I was a security guard for a few years. I also tried my hand at mixed martial arts, both in the ring and managing those who were brave enough to enter.

I don't fight people with 8-limbs anymore. Now, I fight fraud all over the world, with a keyboard and mouse. Legit! That's what I do! I am a Certified Payments and Fraud Prevention Professional. A CPFPP!

Still, I enjoy creative writing and, now, I want to try my hand at writing for television and the big screen. I have had a few pieces I have written be published before, but never produced. That is something I would love to see.
