Latest Release
"Last Quarter"
Coming Soon
"Mental Warfare"
The intersection of athletic pressure and spiritual warfare
Psychological horror writer and pitcher for Colorado Christian University's Cougars baseball team. Blends athletic experience with spiritual storytelling.
My writing explores the internal battles people face—the fears that shape us, the pressure that defines us, and the unseen spiritual forces influencing our minds.
Through competitive baseball, I've learned pressure, expectation, failure, and mental warfare. These experiences fuel stories that reveal spiritual lessons hidden beneath everyday experiences.
While stories lean into psychological intensity, they carry redemptive purpose—showing God's light piercing even the most chaotic mental spaces.
"Whether on the mound or behind the keyboard, I'm committed to creating meaningful stories that challenge, provoke, and ultimately point readers toward eternal truth."
