Hey everyone. I was born in Coral Springs, Florida, which is about an hour away from Miami. I now reside in Las Vegas, but plan on coming back to Florida for college, hence my username! I currently in forensic debate in school, and thanks to the praise of a previous teacher, I am in a journalism course 2 years in advance. My entire family --both sides-- was born in New York, so I'm the only Floridian in my family. Consequently, I am a huge fan of both Florida and New York-based sports teams. My all-time favorite baseball player is Chipper Jones and my all-time favorite football player is Jason Taylor. Sometimes my biases can get in the way of my decision making (such as: "HE WAS SAFE!" or "THAT WASN'T A STRIKE!!") so we can rule out "umpire" as a career choice! I try to have unbiased opinions nonetheless. I love fantasy sports, music, the Rat Pack, and above all else, writing about sports. The thing that attracted me most to pursue this career is because I like knowing that I have the power to inform. I like knowing that people can depend on me for their daily news and opinions. It is so rewarding to know that people may gain knowledge just by reading the articles I write, and hopefully my writing serves as a pleasant distraction for you guys! Surely, I will never let you guys down. Check out my weekly "The Rant" column every thursday. Oh, and I know that I can Stump The Schwab!
