On a day-to-day basis, Silvestri utilizes his physics degree to conduct nuclear fusion research in pursuit of a cleaner, cheaper, and more efficient energy source to power the future.

 

A lifelong daydreamer, he spends much of his free mind time creating and refining stories, some of which have been developing for over a decade. His writing journey began in middle school with a thriller about a cannibalistic serial killer, The Long Pork Butcher. In high school, he expanded his storytelling with Cesar, an anthology about a lone-wolf yet respectable thug.

 

He has since worked as a successful ghostwriter, written a play produced at Lehigh University, and has been running a long-standing Dungeons & Dragons campaign with six players since December 2023.

 

His stories emphasize human relatability, whether set in a galaxy of space wizards and hippies or in the daily life of a detective. As someone with ADHD and a brother with special needs, he embraces diverse representations of how people think and live, believing that to be human is to be human—regardless of orientation, appearance, or challenges.

 

His interests and inspirations include history (particularly the Roman Republic), Catholicism, Renaissance art, Agatha Christie novels, action stories, and orchids.
