A 19-year veteran of the Virginia public school system, I currently serve as a high school administrator outside of Richmond. Having spent nearly two decades as a teacher, coach, and mentor, I live and work in the hallways where stories like Chris Frye’s are born. While Manifest Destiny is my debut novel, it is a labor of love I have been refining since my college days. I am a father of two amazing boys and a husband to a wonderfully supportive wife, whose strength has been the foundation of my writing journey. My background includes years of blogging and podcasting, all while navigating the beautiful, chaotic life of a dedicated educator and devoted family man.
