Meet the Writer
I'm a veteran, data scientist, and writer who finally settled in the Augusta area. When I'm not at my day job, I'm chasing a PhD and finishing a novel I started years ago. Augusta Life began as a simple directory but evolved into something more personal — a place to write about the locals I meet, the spots I discover, and whatever else catches my attention. I've been journaling daily for most of my life, so documenting life is just what I do.
