He retired in 2019, after a successful twenty-year career at the rank of Senior Chief Petty Officer. He now spends his time writing and spending time with his children. A die-hard New York sports fan, music lover and avid reader, he ventured into writing as an outlet after a long battle with alcoholism.\n\n“I never saw myself as a writer, definitely never saw myself writing a book. But we all have a hidden talent, a burning desire to do something, do or create something special, even if only for ourselves. Most times though, we are too scared to act on it. We only get one chance at this thing called life, why let fear stifle us? Why not see how great we can truly be? Go be great!”\n\nHis first novel, “fin: a story of love and hope”, started as a recurring dream he just could not shake. Heralded as \"riveting\", \"captivating\", and \"a rollercoaster\", is now an award-winning novel!\n\n*2022 Spring Book Fest Award Winner Literary Fiction*\n*2022 Spring Book Fest Award Winner Coming of Age*\n\n*2021 American Fiction Award Winner for Best Family Saga\n\n*2021 American Fiction Award Finalist in the Best New Fiction category\n\n*2021 American Fiction Award Finalist in the Best Coming of Age category\n\n*2021 American Fiction Award Finalist in the Best Urban Fiction category\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781735524702\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/b\u003e 28-11-2020\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Note:\u003c\/b\u003e Book is in good condition!
