About Phillip

I write science fiction that explores first contact, human unity, and the consequences of defining ourselves in the presence of another intelligence.

My work blends hard science foundations with character-driven storytelling, focusing on diplomacy, ethics, and the fragile choices that shape humanity’s future.

The Fourth Key: Treaty on Proxima B is my debut novel and the first book in The Proxima Sequence—a series centered on harmonic intelligence, alien architecture, and the moment humanity is asked not what it can do, but who it chooses to be.
