About

I am as big of a sports fan as you will ever meet. I was raised at Sun Devil stadium and am currently a proud Sun Devil studying Journalism at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications at Arizona State University. My aspirations are simple, I wanna write about sports. Whether it be NBA, NCAA, MLB, or the NFL, I will have an opinion on it.

I currently reside in Tempe, Arizona, what I consider to be a sports Mecca. Around here you will always find me at a stadium. I might be getting some sun at a spring training game, cheering on the Suns in the "Purple Palace", or cheering for the Devils as they play at the "House of Heat." Either way, you can always look to me as someone who will be around the sports world.

    Before you write your articles you should check to see if others have written about the same thing. Took a lot of views away from my article that i posted about the same thing a whole day before yours.
