Who am I?

I was born in Chicago, but grew up in North Carolina as a displaced Cubs fan. Many consider me a baseball expert with a concentration in the Chicago Cubs.

I graduated in 2007 from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a degree in Business Administration and a minor in Economics.
