I may have been born in New York, but I've been a Sioux Falls kid my entire life. I always knew that I wanted to be in the sports broadcast industry. I attended the University of South Dakota (Go Yotes!) and met my wife Brooke there. Outside of sports, I'm a life-long pro wrestling fan that travels the country each year to go to Wrestlemania (for real). During the summer I'm usually on a golf course. I somehow once hit a hole-in-one on #4 at the Brandon Golf Course...we'll just consider that as a super lucky shot. Otherwise I'm usually trying to find a way to travel, enjoying life with my family, and taking in some form of a sporting event.
