Graduated from Washington State and worked as a lifeguard, insurance salesman, and semi-pro poker player before deciding to attend Washington University Law School in St Louis starting in 2009. Dedicated fan of the Seattle Seahawks as well as the Sounders and T-Birds. Enjoys taking in the occasional Mariners game from the beer garden but refuses to support professional hoopball since the death of the Sonics and instead hopes for an NHL team to come to a renovated Key Arena.
