I was born and raised in Rustburg Virginia and have lived in the area all of my life. Obviously I'm a huge sports fan and that fuels the passion for my work. I have a great appreciation of sports on the local level and being from the area, I like to see all of our local players succeed no matter what the sport.
My favorite sport is NASCAR. My first NASCAR memory is watching Kevin Harvick inch out Jeff Gordon at Atlanta just a few weeks after replacing Dale Earnhardt and I have been hooked ever since.
