Writing With Purpose

My writing style is built through 14 years of military service, grounded in discipline, service, and clarity. As a U.S. Army Veteran, I learned to navigate complex and dangerous situations, to communicate clearly under pressure, and to accomplish the mission. I bring that same precision, clarity, and mission-driven focus to every project.

My work includes: the collection of fiction in Snapshots of War, Virtuous, and The Time Between; faith-based reflections in The Faithful Quill; translations of technical concepts into accessible technology articles, documentation, and standard operating procedures for LinkedIn and various companies; and contributions to publications such as The Working Tools Magazine, and IronMike Magazine. 

Beyond published work, I’ve coordinated media coverage for events, supported political communications, written speeches, and consistently connected with diverse audiences through authentic storytelling.

At the core of my work is trust. Whether I’m writing long-form narrative, thought leadership, or copywriting, my goal is always the same: clear, purposeful writing that connects with your audience and delivers results.

The Burning Bush I Missed

Have you ever wondered what it would look like if Moses had walked away from the burning bush? Of course not. The All-Sovereign God knows all and knew Moses was the leader He wanted to lead His people out of the hands of Egyptian rule, before Moses was born. Although the scenario is implausible, I often wonder if I did walk away from my “burning bush”. Of course, God knew I would, but I didn’t. Here’s what I mean. I walked away from my Catholic faith as a teenager. It wasn’t completely in my con...

Compline Quill: January

This month has been an amazing journey toward the goal of writing twice a month. So much so that I have met some great authors in the community who have inspired me to do other things. One thing I want to incorporate into my writing habits is a monthly roundup. I got the idea from Lauren Montgomery, who writes The Catholic Commons. First, let me say, what an amazing, devout person she is. I had a conversation with her after she shouted out my article on sin and blessing my children. That is actu...

Chipping Away at the Wax

Every night, our house settles into a sacred rhythm. The lights dim, the world quiets, and I sit with my youngest son. We make the sign of the cross, say a select litany of prayers, and then I kiss his forehead. It is a moment that should feel holy, a moment of peace. All too often, it is clouded by a single, crushing thought that rises up from the depths of my own soul. *Who am I to bless this precious gift from God?*I am a wretched man, a sinner, saying a blessing over such a fragile soul. Tha...

Your Mac Users Are Costing You More Than You Think.

Congratulations. The new hire is approved, and they need a Mac. You've budgeted for the hardware, but I bet you haven't accounted for the three hidden costs that are about to drain your team's time and your security budget.

It's not the price of the laptop. It's the friction.

It's the security patch that doesn't deploy automatically. The enterprise software license that suddenly requires a costly one-off purchase. The help desk ticket from a Mac user that takes three times longer to resolve.
