Not long ago I was a Rogue River Hotshot, this fostered a strong interest in fire ecology and fire effects—which spans into an interest in various fields of disturbance ecology.

THIS IS WHAT I LOOK LIKE WHEN I AM COLD

In my free time I like to write books (fiction, graphic novels, sci-fi, children’s books, etc). I have written various stories that will knock peoples’ shoes off. I believe that walking without shoes can be enlightening. When the time comes, I will add links to my books.

Aside from writing my hobbies include hiking, biking, making music, hermitting, making documentaries, saving the world and drawing.

This is a cave in Australia that I have been hermitting in.

Here you see my band mate Niko Kwiarkowski in the foreground. We play punk music.

If you are reading this that means you met me before I became famous. You may still write me fan mail now.
