Bogdan Sopterean was born on October 1, 1980, in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, which is located in the beautiful region of Transylvania—yes, the region where Dracula was born. When he began middle school, he started to practice martial arts, which helped him to become more focused in school and helped him learn to believe in himself. By age seventeen, he was a black belt and was part of the Romanian National Karate Team.
He graduated from Nicolae Balcescu High School, where Spanish, English and Romanian were his major courses. Because sports were already a big part of his life, he graduated from Babes-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Physical Education and Sports.
In 2002, Bogdan decided to move to America, known as the land of opportunity, where one could achieve anything they put their mind to, no matter who they are, and ever since, he looked for his calling.
His true passion for writing came at a difficult time in his life, but at that moment, he discovered that writing books is his calling and that he will never stop writing.
Presently, Bogdan and his lovely wife Natali live in Lake Zurich, Illinois with their beautiful fifteen-year-old daughter Sydney and their dog Grace.
