About Ty

Former senior principle business systems analyst, now full-time novelist and screenwriter, Ty has lived up and down the West Coast, from San Diego to Seattle, earning an MA in sport psychology, owning a Domino's Pizza franchise, teaching himself several computer programming languages, and working in the medical-device industry.

He has two published novels to his credit: The Hunt for Wolf_Eyes (hacktivist suspense thriller), and On Sundays We Go Long (sweeping story of camaraderie in a socially disconnected society.)

Ty also has four spec scripts: Airmed One (trauma flight nurse action drama), Life On The Curb (societal underdog sports drama), Sweet Caroline (exploitive psychological thriller) and recently completed Christmas In Fairhaven (Hallmark-style story about two people trying to avoid the trappings of love during the holidays - spoiler alert: good luck!).

In addition to playing tennis, Ty runs and bikes the roads and trails in Sonoma County, California, where he resides with his wife.

Unique traits: 2:36 marathoner, cyclist, Ironman & tennis player.
