About

"I'm just gonna keep rockin' and rollin' and (writin') better (pieces)." Hopefully they're intelligent, insightful, and make people think. At least a little.

I love sports, specifically the NFL, NBA, and NCAA basketball and football, and my favorite teams are the Philadelphia Eagles, Utah Jazz, and Michigan State Spartans, three teams who for the most part embody hard-nosed, disciplined play, as well as the Flordia State Seminoles who do the exact opposite.

I also love my job as an 8th grade Language Arts teacher in New Jersey, my beautiful girlfriend and our dogs, reading, and watching movies that make me laugh, think or cry.
