About Me

An accomplished writer, I've been writing steadily since college. I work mostly remote, composing and pitching online content. My corpus includes blogs, AP-style news stories, op-eds, articles, reviews, and also screenplays - which I won an award for once. 

Interest of mine as far as writing run the gamut, but I continually come back to writing about movies, wrestling, TV, and pop culture. Interning at Oakland University's school paper, The Oakland Post, I got to interview a local filmmaker about his project at the time. That was a change of pace. I wrote more about the election cycle and campus happenings. Lately, I get to write more about what I love at Cultured Vultures (click on a sample or two).

When not writing, I like talking with friends or watching - if I'm not working on - a movie. I produced one with Mr. Belding in it.

Why Vince McMahon Needs To Retire From WWE

Opinion piece, blog post. Vince McMahon is wrestling's greatest pioneer of the modern era. The WWE has thrived because of him since the 80's, but lately, he has been losing his touch and showing his age. It might be time for him to hand over the keys. I explain why.

Review: Rogue One is the Real Deal

Review and analysis extolling the merits of Star Wars: Rogue One, the second-highest grossing movie of 2016 which brought Darth Vader back to screens. The film also goes further than expected to explain and justify the hole in the Death Star, taking that plot device as seriously as possible. That by itself is impressive!
