Long bio

David Hasty was born on September 15, 1971, in Ahoskie, North Carolina. He has always been drawn to the mysteries of life, both seen and unseen. A lifelong learner and natural storyteller, he has built a career that bridges science, humanity, and quiet spirituality. A graduate of North Carolina State University, he later earned his Master's degree in Education Administration from East Carolina University. For over 15 years, he has served as a high school science teacher, where his passion for discovery, curiosity, and connection has inspired countless students. Before his time in education, he worked in 911 emergency services and as a Quality Control Chemist, roles that gave him a unique understanding of people, precision, and the delicate balance between chaos and order. Outside the classroom, David is a proud father of three: Jenna, his oldest daughter; Alex, his middle son; and Hannah, his youngest. Writing has always been his creative refuge: a comfort found in books and storytelling since his earliest years. Today, his fiction reflects the same curiosity and wonder that have defined his life: a blend of imagination, empathy, and a subtle spiritual awareness that guides his characters and themes.
