About Devon »

I'm a 22-year-old recent college graduate currently residing in Eastern Pennsylvania. I graduated from Flagler College with a degree in Journalism and Broadcasting. It was there I honed my sports journalism skills, spending three years on the student newspaper the Gargoyle, then working at the Florida Times-Union and the St. Augustine Record. My experience includes covering Florida vs. Georgia 2007 and The ACC Championship. The most famous athlete I've interviewed is Tim Tebow. Currently I'm freelancing in Eastern Pennsylvania and just started writing for Athlete Interactive covering Tyson Chandler.

My favorite sports teams include the The New York Mets, The Dallas Cowboys, Duke University Men's Basketball and The # 88 NASCAR team of Dale Earnhardt Jr.

My experience with AI was great, David is a great guy. I wrote the bios for some of their Olympians this summer, I'm hoping to get something that pays from them, they're a company on the rise. Maybe some day we'll get to work together, then it would be an even smaller world.

Thanks for the fan vote man. Believe it or not, we have something in common even though you don't know me. I covered Tyson Chandler for Athlete Interactive as an internship. Small World. Looking forward to reading more of your stuff.
