About

Growing up, even with the pressures of being the oldest son out of four boys to succeed by going into medicine or law, Stello wanted to create in any form imaginable that would allow him to escape his reality. As time passed and before the call of the streets claimed him, he made a decision to join The United States Army with hopes of seeing the world and bettering himself as there were very little opportunities available to him. During those six years of military service, he would travel the globe and see more than he expected as a Combat Medic.  Eventually he completed his service to his country and received an honorable discharge from the Amy.

Still thirsting for knowledge, Stello would go on to attain a Bachelors in Psychology, then further his pursuits with a Masters of Social Work. During this time, he worked various jobs to include: Nursing, Teaching of Special Needs Children, Counseling and Therapy of at-risk youth, and even as an Industrial Engineer.  Each of these endeavors were designed to remind Stello that he still has room to grow and stretch and make a difference in the world. 

The need to create, which stirred within him since childhood, could not be quelled as during Graduate school Stello became ingulfed in music under the moniker DaRudeBwoy, releasing many songs under the label Massive Musiq Entertainment. Never backing down from the next challenge he gained the opportunity to become the Brand Ambassador for the company AFTX Towels where the slogan is “Love Doesn’t Have To Be Messy”.

Never having the notion of one day becoming an author, though gifted in writing poetry as several of his writings were featured with permission in the book “Lost Letters of a Lonely Girl” written by author Dr. Cherry DeVore, he never pursued anything in the realm of writing other than music. One day during a low point in his life while walking to Walmart, divine intervention would inspire him, while contemplating life, and so the idea for the 3-part series of Dead Switch was born. The story is the culmination of the many questions and ideas that rambled in his head during the years now put onto the pages of this suspenseful thriller Space Opera. It is said that “Life imitates Art”, so the pursuit of reinventing and survival have come to roost.
