I was born in Staten Island, New York. 19 years later I now find myself in Tampa, Florida, being that one kid in the room wearing a Yankees jersey. I attend SPC for journalism and will transfer to UCF after I receive my A.A. in communications. I have wrote for Fansided since 2014. I cover the Tampa Yankees and have a weekly column called The Full 408. I aspire to not only be a journalist, but also a professional scout.
