Bio: Born and raised in Pacific, MO, (that's out by Six Flags), I graduated from Pacific High School in 2004. After that, I went to Truman State University in Kirksville to study journalism. While there, I worked on the campus newspaper, the Index, and also did other odd jobs to pay the rent—I worked at a liquor store and at Sears. I finished up my education at Truman in 2008 and immediately moved to Hannibal, Mo. to take a job with the Hannibal Courier-Post. I spent two years in Hannibal, the last as the Sports Editor, before coming to St. Peters.
