I am a veteran journalist living in Tampa, Florida. I have worked at several newspapers in various editing roles, including The Tampa Tribune, the Fresno Bee and the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. I am a native Arkansan and have been known to support the Arkansas Razorbacks even in losing years. I joined Patch.com on Sept. 6, 2017, as Hurricane Irma had Florida in its possible path.
