I lead technology teams in the enterprise world, working at the intersection of high-stakes decision-making, human complexity, and long-term consequence. Whether I’m writing about leadership or imagining future civilizations, my work is driven by the same question: how do people act when the pressure is real and the answers are not obvious?
I am not a pastor or a theorist. I am a practitioner. My leadership writing is grounded in Scripture, approached with intellectual honesty, and tested against real-world environments where power, politics, and responsibility collide. The leaders found in the Bible were not idealized figures, they were flawed humans navigating impossible choices. That tension is where I believe lasting wisdom lives.
In my science fiction, those same themes surface through different lenses: authority, sacrifice, loyalty, belief, and the cost of survival. I am drawn to stories that explore what happens when individuals and societies are forced to choose between comfort and conviction, control and conscience.
Across both genres, I write without platitudes and without easy answers. No Christianese. No moral shortcuts. Just grounded exploration of leadership, identity, and integrity when the stakes are high.
My work is for readers who want depth, whether they are seeking faith-anchored leadership insights or immersive speculative worlds that wrestle with timeless human questions.

In 2125, humanity learned a terrible truth: we are not alone in the universe, and we are not safe.
The Vethrak arrived without warning, without negotiation, without mercy. They call themselves "Those Who Claim," and to them, the harvesting of intelligent species is as...
Between the stimulus and the response, there is a space. In that space lives your freedom. This is not poetry; this is the most practical leadership principle you will ever learn. Someone insults you. That is the stimulus. You insult them back. That is the response. Most people experience those two events as instantaneous, as if the response is the inevitable and automatic result of the stimulus. But there is a space between them, a gap measured in seconds, and in that gap you have the power...
A partner company representative is on a video call with your team. He is brash, cutting, dismissive with nearly every remark. Then he crosses a line. He targets one of your team members, a woman everyone respects, with a comment so disrespectful the entire call goes silent. You feel it immediately. The heat floods your chest. Your face burns. Your jaw clenches. Every molecule in your body is screaming at you to explode, to cut him down in front of everyone, to protect your team with rage....
You cannot think your way out of a physiological hijack. This is the sentence that changed how I lead, how I parent, and how I fight my own worst impulses. For years I believed that self-control was a mental discipline, that if I just had stronger convictions or better theology or more willpower, I could reason my way past temptation. I was wrong. When adrenaline floods your system, when your heart rate spikes, when your body goes into fight-or-flight mode, you are not operating in the realm...
