Biography

Born in raised in Mississippi, I grew up in a household that was split between Mississippi sports rivals. Each Christmas, family members would gift each other with the opposite team's merchandise to poke fun at whomever's team won the Egg Bowl that year. As a young child, I remember watching sports movies like Angels in the Outfield on repeat. If you haven't been to a baseball game and wanted to lift your arms like  angel wings, have you even been to a game? There is nothing more thrilling to a die-hard sports fan like me than watching Ole Miss baseball on a beautiful spring day at Swayze field.
