About Me

I am an author and high school English teacher in Atlanta, Georgia. In 2018, I was a Townsend Prize finalist, a finalist for a Georgia Author of the Year award, and longlisted for the Southern Book Prize with my debut novel, SHADOW OF THE LIONS. I live with my wife and two sons in Atlanta, where I am the English department chair at Holy Innocents’ Episcopal School. My other novels include NEVER TURN BACK, A FIRE IN THE NIGHT, and NEVER GO HOME, which drops August 2022.
