About Me

I grew up in Detroit. But I'm now living in the Big D instead of the Dirty D. I'm working on my third official hometown.

My Interests

Television:

I don't get a chance to watch too much TV. Any Pistons, Red Wings, Michigan, Lions or Tigers game. I'm a very loyal Detroit sports fan when I can get the games on TV down here.

Books:

Freakanomics

Heroes:

Chatsworth Higgins, that Dude from Mobile who want's to dig up the Gold!

Drive time
