Press release coordinator at Mobile International Speedway, home of the ARCA Mobile 200. Co-editor of SB Nation NASCAR and professional wrestling nerd.

I previously worked in stick-and-ball sports, attending the Senior Bowl from 2007-2013; previous assignments included the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament and select NFL Preseason Games.

I write stories from the perspective that sports and athletics are compelling human drama. My current beat is motorsports where my content can be found at:
