I live in Florida, USA. I studied Philosophy and Psychology at Stetson University and Practical Philosophy and Applied Ethics at UNF.

In 2009, I had to take leave from work and school due to a schizophrenia diagnosis. Since then, while battling schizophrenia, I have written a few books of poetry and a collection of essays. In addition, I have written for Basic Income Earth Network and the literary magazine Ghost Parachute.

Schizophrenia is a troubling and difficult illness. However, I have found the stigma associated with it is much worse than the illness itself. I have lost quite a bit in life since my diagnosis, including friends, mentors and professional contacts.

In college, I was interested in political philosophy and ethics, although I read far and wide. To learn more about my professional background, see my resume.
