About Me

I'm a writer and software engineer in Kansas City, Missouri. Pronouns: he/him. I am on the Riverfront Readings Committee, and I edit a free horror e-zine, tiny frights.

My personal blog, Random Modulation, uses the Python-powered Pelican static site generator and a simple theme I created..
