About

My affair with sports journalism started when I was very young. I remember watching NBC double headers, and not only focusing on Jordan's movies, and Reggie Miller's off the ball movement, but the narrative of Marv Albert really lit the game up for me. My original dream was to play in the game...and when I outgrew that dream I'd start watching NBA games on mute and commentating them myself! Soon enough...I got tired of waiting for games to come on for me to talk about the game, so I started writing in my notebook, any sports thoughts going through my mind and showing it to family and friends. A few newspaper positions, and freelance sports magazine roles later, and here I am. Bringing my dreams to Bleacher Report as a sports editing intern. My first love when it comes to sports, is and always has been basketball. NBA basketball I should say. I love everything about the game. I love that we get to know these players as individuals on and off the court and for years and years we can watch them play and develop as the years go by. I like the politics of the game. I love it all. So that's really where my strength in knowledge lies, however I have a very great knowledge for all sports in general.
