About

I'm a recent graduate of Aurora University, where I obtained my Bachelor's in Communications. My education was focused on journalism as becoming a sports journalist/broadcaster has been a dream of mine since I was young.

I currently reside in Illinois just outside of Chicago, but don't call me a Bears or Cubs fan please. I have played baseball and football in both high school and college. I also participate in MMA at an amateur level at the moment.

You can find my work throughout the B/R site and also now at http://themmacorner.com/.
