After retiring from the US Navy, he worked for a large defense contractor for 16 years developing both domestic and international business. His widely acclaimed first novel, Half Staff 2018, introduced his principal protagonist, Dan Steele, and took an inside look at domestic terrorism. Chokepoint followed, offering the evolution of a modern-day maritime swindle in the Red Sea based on a model from the Ottoman Empire. The President's Hail Mary takes a credible 2025 look at the frightening reality of nuclear weapons proliferation and the human elements tied to it: power, greed and justice. An accomplished diver, his world-wide diving experiences are reflected in Steele's underwater adventures.
