I was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky cheering for the Louisville Cardinals and the Cincinnati Reds. Growing up I always assumed I would leave Louisville but the city kept growing with me and improving, so I satisfied my wanderlust by traveling around the country and visiting several countries in Europe. I have a passion for other cultures and ways of life and love to read about history and current events. When I m not working I love to spend time outside, attend sporting events, play chess, read whatever I get my hands on, and spend time with my friends and family.
