About

I'm a 22-year-old ex-student who most recently attended the University of Minnesota. My favorite (and go-to) distraction from work is anything relating to Gopher Hockey, but I also find solace in bemoaning the state of the Twins, Wild, Vikings, Gopher Football and Gopher Basketball. Being a Minnesota sports fan is tough...
