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...
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...
The email arrives at 9:47 AM. Your boss questions your judgment on a decision you made last week. You read it twice. Your chest tightens. Your face heats. Your fingers hover over the keyboard, already forming a defense. This is the moment. Not five minutes from now when you have already typed three paragraphs explaining why you were right and they are wrong. Not this afternoon when you are telling your spouse how unreasonable your boss is. Right now. The first thirty seconds after the...
You are in a meeting. Someone criticizes your project in front of the entire team. You feel the heat rising in your chest. The cutting remark forms in your mind, perfectly calibrated to wound. Your mouth opens. And then, in that split second, you hear a voice that is not theirs and not quite yours either. It says one word: “Stop.” You close your mouth. The moment passes. The meeting continues. No one knows that a war just happened and you won it. That voice, that authority to halt a thought...
