I currently work as a criminal defense attorney but writing has always been my passion (I have a B.A. in English) and I have several screenplays that I'm currently developing. I've also spent considerable time in Europe and speak French at an intermediate level. My hobbies include boxing, learning to play violin, and spending as much time as possible with my Bernese Mountain Dog, Gus.
