My name is Matthew. I reside in the Greater St. Louis area of Missouri. I am a father of a four year old girl. Most of my professional life has been in IT Support in some fashion. This doesn't really bring me into focus though.

And I love stories. They are like oxygen to me. Creating them, sharing them, and taking part in them. I love developing and discovering characters and world building. I love discovering the stories people and communities tell themselves. My favorite thing is to help people get through a challenging chapter in their life.

I am a technology and pc gaming enthusiast. I have a steam library of over 500 games and still spend 80% on the same 10 or so.

I stream Red Dead Online, Rimworld and Sea of Thieves....and will stream Dwarf Fortress if they update it on Steam like they say. Preparing to start doing RedM WildWestRP once I get a charachter whitelisted.

My handle is Phoenixrising777. I chose it because my story is filled with sublime triumphs seeded in the most devastating of losses. My favorite quote is G.K. Chesterton used by my favorite author Neil Gaiman in his book Caroline . "Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten."

I look forward to discovering your story and to create some of our own together. Join me on Twitch...
