I was born in Roanoke, VA. I grew up in PG County in the state of Maryland right outside of Washington, DC. I now live in Durham, NC with my wife, Autherine, who hails from Liberia. I love reading, writing, photography, science, games (board, video, and yard), and watching whatever on You Tube, Netflix, Hulu, and the like. I am also a born-again Christian who follows the truth and not my feelings.
