JAY ERICKSON grew up in Midwestern USA before joining the United States Air Force at the age of nineteen as an aircraft mechanic. During his active tour, he earned two Associates’ degrees in Computer Applications and Aerospace Maintenance. In 2001, he separated from active service and became an Air Force Reservist.
Since that time, he has held a variety of jobs from working at a casino, to crane operation, to masonry. Even with a myriad of different careers, though, writing has been his primary interest and hobby. As an avid reader, he has always held a deep love for Fantasy and Science Fiction. It was a natural fit for his writing. Now he’s taking that hobby one step further by joining Halsbren Publishing LLC.
Mr. Erickson resides in Northwest Indiana with his wife and two children.
