A native of Kalamazoo, Michigan, Brian now lives in the Chicagoland area in Illinois with his partner of 12 years, Scott. When he’s not furthering his education in some way (he’s currently in the midst of a doctoral degree program) or engaging in writing projects, Brian’s non-professional pursuits include swimming, shopping, theatre, family and friends, outdoor fun, and definitely basking on the beach with margarita or martini in hand.
