Roger Mendoza is a storyteller, designer, and multimedia creator whose work blends frontier grit, mythic imagination, and emotional truth. As the founder of Romen Graphics and a creative force behind Dark Sheriff Records, he builds interconnected worlds across books, music, photography, and handcrafted physical editions. Roger spent most of his career as a software engineer in the defense industry, where he honed his analytical mind and lifelong passion for problem‑solving. After twenty-three years in California and fifteen years in Colorado, he returned to his hometown of San Antonio, Texas, settling on the outskirts where rural quiet meets city convenience. There, he continues to write, design, and produce his work with a hands‑on approach that reflects both precision and artistry. A professional photographer, Roger explores the natural beauty around San Antonio, capturing light and quiet moments that inspire his stories. Family history is another cornerstone of his life; as the eighth of ten children, he has spent years preserving photographs, documents, and memories that connect generations. His curiosity about human behavior, life’s mysteries, and the drama that unfolds in everyday lives fuels his storytelling. Whether writing frontier dramas, ghost stories, or modernized classics, a single creative philosophy unifies Roger’s work: stories should feel lived-in, personal, and unforgettable. He continues to expand the World of the Dark Sheriff, a mythic, evolving universe that ties his books, music, and visual art into one cohesive creative saga. His work invites readers into worlds that feel lived‑in, mythic, and unmistakably his own.
