"Born and raised in the Tri-State, I am proud to call the River City my home. I'm grateful that I get to spend my days surrounded by music -- it has always played an integral part in my life. When the headphones are off, I enjoy traveling and spending time outdoors. I believe road trips are good for the soul and that there isn't much a trip to the beach won't cure."
