Jack Azadi
London, United Kingdom

A combat veteran and security consultant with over a decade of experience in conflict zones. When ISIS tore through Iraq, in 2014, he was assigned to an international news team documenting the genocide and enslavement of the Yazidi population. Soon after, he found himself in uniform again as a volunteer fighter in the Kurdish Army... On his return home, he started writing... Utilizing extensive international, multi-cultural, and life experiences, he has garnered 17 accolades over the last five years and has a certain penchant for underdogs and gutsy female characters.

My latest feature is a crime drama/neo-western in the vein of Hell or High Water & Thelma and Louise.
