Smith describes a childhood that included simultaneously being a surfer and a working cowboy. His writing career began while working at Kennedy Space Center, writing articles for trade press. This led to his first book devoted to architecture of the Hewlett-Packard 3000 computer.
In San Francisco Smith began writing politically focused opinion pieces for Bay Area newspapers (San Francisco Chronicle, [2] [3] Oakland Tribune, Contra Costa Times). While in San Francisco he expanded into fiction, publishing his first novella (Afterlife). His speaking engagements include the Libertarian National Convention [4] and the Gun Rights Policy Conference. [5]
In the music field, he has recorded, produced and contributed to compilation albums. In 2024, in response to the Hurricane Helene disaster in Asheville, North Carolina, he organized and produced The Flood: Music for MANNA, released in 2025, to benefit the local MANNA FoodBank. [6]
