Biography

born in Pretoria in 1973, went to work abroad in his youth and completed a degree in Psychology with a major in Criminology. He currently lives and works in Johannesburg.

His serious writing career started with two of his stories being read on RSG in 2009 (Grondpad and Die Doodskis), after which the writing bug bit him. He has continued to write since then, mostly about ghosts and other evils that lurk in the dark, because "a story with ghosts is like eating your food with chillies".

His songs have been used in shows like Amper and Buite lê die Nag and are heard on the radio.
