Hey there, I’m Ricky

I was born in Nashville, TN.

I had a loving family + lived in suburbia + went to Catholic school.

I went to Purdue University to be a Civil Engineer,

but felt called on an adventure elsewhere

So I spent time in politics, worked on my family’s businesses,

even built a online marketplace startup.

In my journal, I processed what I could of life’s ebbs and flows..

My dream was always to write novels like the greats-

Faulkner, Hemingway, Woolf, HS Thompson, and DFW (I could go on)-

they are my heroes.

If you dig atmospheric writing, when the author dances through details

and you slip into a trance, lost in another world;

reach out to me. I hope you enjoy my work.
