I grew up in Monongah, WV and received my BA from Bethany College in WV and spent the next several years working the professional theatre scene in Detroit, MI as a scenic designer, painter, carpenter, and TD. In recent years, I have shifted my location to Indianapolis and my area of focus to end-of-life and death care.
