The Work

Brian writes the Spirit Saga, a supernatural urban fantasy series that threads together metaphysical questions, fringe science, and emotionally charged character drama. His stories live where afterlife speculation, time-bending possibilities, and messy human relationships collide.

By day, Brian works a full-time job in Minnesota; by night, he’s juggling family life, too many ideas, and an ever-growing collection of TTRPG dice. His background in comedy writing and love of speculative “what if?” questions shape the tone of his work: accessible, character-driven, and unafraid to poke at big spiritual questions from unexpected angles.

When he’s not writing or world-building for the Spirit Saga, you’ll find him experimenting with 3D printing, diving into fringe science and time-travel theories, or turning random shower thoughts into short-form videos and social posts.
