About

Attending Seton Hall University in New Jersey, where I am a junior journalism major with a focus on sports journalism. Originally from New York, but moved up to Vermont where I have lived for most of my life. Talking and watching sports are one of my passions. I'm a diehard Yankees, Jets, and Knicks fan, and I also am a big college basketball fan (although I don't really get to see quality basketball since I attend SHU, usually in the basement of the Big East.)

I am currently a Writing Intern/Featured Columnist here at Bleacher Report.

    Hey John I was wondering if I could have you on The Chris Gros Show at WKTN Knightcast, UCF's Student run radio program for an on-air interview concerning the Jet's offseason plans and draft strategy this Friday anywhere from 2-4. Email me back at CGrosUCF@knights.ucf.edu. Thank you and sorry for the short notice.
