Einst ein Klassenstar, fand dieser Autor während einer schweren Krankheit Trost im Schreiben. Diese Erfahrung lehrte ihn, auf Papier zu "fühlen", was seine literarische Stimme tief prägte. Nach seiner Genesung und dem Erwerb der Lehrbefähigung entdeckte er die heilende Kraft von Kindern und des Geschichtenerzählens, was seine Arbeit maßgeblich beeinflusst. Seine Schriften schöpfen aus persönlichen "verlorenen Jahren" und verweben Hoffnung in Erzählungen, die von der Stille des Landlebens und dem weiten Nachthimmel inspiriert sind.
