Hi.

I wrote many of the sourcebooks for Mongoose Publishing's Conan the Roleplaying Game. I also like to draw and read. My favorite games include Wings of Glory, D-Day Dice, Viticulture, Scythe, and Settlers of Catan.

I am an accountant for Robert Half. I am currently doing contract accounting work at Beacon Industries. I have two adult children.

As far as my personal education goes, I am a life-long learner. I graduated from Columbus North High School in 1988. I have a BS in business (with an accounting specialization) from Indiana University, an MBA from National American University, and a Ph.D. in Organizational Management (with a specialization in Leadership).

My favorite authors include Robert E. Howard and Erle Stanley Gardner. My favor ...more

Modiphius has announced that it is developing the new Conan Roleplaying Game. As many of you may know, I had quite the hand in writing the sourcebooks for the last Conan RPG... and so it may be with this game. Modiphius has asked me to be a part of this new RPG as well. I am so pleased to be on board with this new incarnation of the RPG!
