I grew up in a loving, Christian home in Houston, Texas, where stories came to life. Inspired by my father’s love for the outdoors and our unforgettable trek to Alaska guided by Athabascan Indians, my imagination took flight.
I have a deep respect for God’s creation and its examples for an abundant life. One memorable story sparked the idea of writing The Legend of Denali based on a wolverine dad encountered in the wild.
Today, I write faith-filled stories that inspire children to live with kindness, courage, and heart.
My stories invite young readers to dream big, choose kindness, and discover courage through characters who grow, learn, and inspire lasting change.

Each story helps children understand life’s values through adventure.

Each story helps children understand life’s values through adventure.

Every tale reflects love, trust, and the beauty of compassion.
With a creative imagination and the wonders of God’s world as my writing palette, I am inspired to paint thought-provoking stories that stimulate, educate and challenge young minds. That’s why I consider myself ‘forever young’.
“Kindness, compassion, and love is the truest mark of real strength.”
My passion doesn’t stop at storytelling. It extends into music, mentoring, and inspiring others to live with purpose, imagination, and compassion every single day.
Turning heartfelt stories into songs that inspire children everywhere.
Encouraging kids to dream, create, and lead with kindness.
Living the lessons he writes, love, courage, and compassion.
I believe that stories shouldn’t end when the book closes. Through school visits, community talks, and creative workshops, I can help children understand how imagination can bring about real change.
My mission is to spark empathy, courage, and faith that extend beyond fiction, teaching kids to practice the same compassion, teamwork, and strength they discover in Denali’s world every single day.
