Edward started playing the SCA in 2003. He started off with attending fighter practices with Sun Dragon. His first event was Estrella War 2004. He had a friend who he knew for several years who was a part of the SCA and he and his wife were looking for a hobby they could do together. They hunted down the group that was playing on the West Side of the Valley and never looked back. Edward is part of the Household, County Winterborne.

Edward enjoys the martials arts with the SCA, hard suit, rapier, archery, and thrown weapons and is his main staple for playing. He has made a lot of armor for hard suit fighting. He also is finding a love for serving, like autocrating events. Edward has dabbled in the arts such as scribing and bardic. He is also wanting to expand his interests into blacksmithing.

Edward is squired to Count Brian Winterborne in 2018 and hopes to obtain knighthood someday. He wants to work his way up the ranks and hopefully serve as Crown one day.
