Bio: I consider myself an old-school journalist - growing up in White Lake I worshipped the likes of Edward Murrow, Ernie Pyle, Martha Gellhorn and Robert Capa. White Lake is my home town. I spent most of my time reading at the library or playing sports. I left home for four years to attend journalism school at Michigan State University. There, I earned a degree in journalism with a specialty in history. I consider myself passionate about 5 things: books, the truth, sports, Michigan State and community journalism.
