Thanks for visiting. I'm an avid reader, event manager, father, public speaker, and author of the new novel Vanished from Budapest. I lived in Budapest as a younger man and have returned to visit multiple times. My love for the city shines in this opening novel. Readers will gain a connection to the city and culture without spending hours on a plane. Beyond reading six to eight books a month, I have completed several creative writing courses, and I'm a member of multiple writing groups. I look for inspiration everywhere, especially while studying and visiting diverse places and cultures. Whether jumping from a cliff in Hawaii or hiking the Plitvice Lakes in Croatia, I'm in heaven as long as my wife and four teenage boys are at my side.
