Graduating from Buffalo State College in May 2012 with a B.A. in Journalism. Hockey means everything to me, so naturally I strive to make a career by combining the two. Buffalo Sabres & Rochester Americans pride. Also a growing fan of the OHL's Erie Otters and Niagara Ice Dogs, and slowly getting into junior hockey more and more. I also write for TMM and cover the Toronto Maple Leafs for Aerys Sports. Constantly looking for new challenges and opportunities!
