I'm a UGA journalism grad who "came home" from California and enjoys Suwanee's and Duluth's many assets. I'm a sports nut who also gets into business, politics and local affairs.
As a longtime journalist, I realize that the reader is who matters most.
I have enjoyed being with Suwanee Patch since it launched in 2010. And I have enjoyed being with Duluth Patch since August of 2013.
So I hope that gives you an idea of what I'm about, and what I hope to bring to all the readers of Patch.
