Chad’s writing carries the rawness of lived experience and the sincerity of someone trying to become more than his past. He writes about mental health, fear, faith, identity, and the longing to be seen beneath the inked-over armor of who he once had to be. His words reflect the way he is trying to rebuild himself piece by piece—no longer through violence or reputation, but through honesty, reflection, and the search for connection.
He believes the greatest offering he has is his story. He writes in the hope that his life can be understood, that someone might see beyond what the world has marked on him, and that his journey might help someone else who feels alone in their struggle. His work stands as a testament to a man trying to change from the inside out—one sentence at a time.
