Tyler was born and raised in Albuquerque, NM. In the Southwest he played many sports, and attended school with an eager passion to learn. By the end of high school, Tyler was an All-American swimmer and water polo player, and a member of the National Honors Society.
Tyler left the Land of Enchantment to attend the University of Washington. In Seattle, he continued his interest in swimming and water polo, which led him to become a member, and later the president and captain, of the Water Polo Club. Tyler graduated with bachelor’s degrees in English and community, environment and planning, and a minor in architecture.
After graduating, Tyler briefly lived in Baton Rouge, LA, and then Fresno, CA, gaining experience working as a green blogger and recycling specialist for Electronic Recyclers International. Tyler is currently pursuing a legal career while freelance writing in Seattle.
