By age 12 he was co-piloting a Cessna across the Swiss Alps and by age 18, he was traveling through the cobble-stone streets of Guadalajara investigating the mysterious mummies there.

When he is not teaching and studying History and Writing techniques, you can catch him on Battle.net playing Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm and serving in his local church with the family.
