X. Ho Yen, BS MS MS, is an East Prussian-Cuban-Chinese human raised by Kwai Chang Caine on the planet Vulcan. He’s been writing and creating forever, rocket science day job notwithstanding, and is on the autism spectrum (diagnosed). He’s been a new person since 2006 when he broke a lifelong Complex PTSD from childhood.
Before his two+ decades in aerospace engineering, he was a sandwich maker, security guard, deliverer of flowers, preschool teacher, data processing grunt, taxi driver, and independent software author.
He’s been in the air (PPL glider rating), out to sea (a couple of weeks on a research vessel out of San Diego acquiring atmospheric data), deep underground (Carlsbad Caverns and other public access caves), and in high mountain winter whiteout (a couple of weeks of atmospheric data collection atop a mountain at Steamboat Springs, CO).
He'd like to continue the trend of humanizing and de-militarizing grounded sci fi.
