I'm originally from California, but I traded the West Coast for the East Coast to pursue a career. No complaints so far. My drive in journalism is really just an extension of my love of good conversation. As far as health is concerned, I’ve become a bit of a triathlon enthusiast by converting many a friend to the sport. My most troublesome weakness is... I have a tendency to be so concerned with the well-being of others that I forget about my own. It gets to the point that I write about other people’s problems begin to incorporate their emotions and concerns into my mentality. While that’s great for them, it’s terrible for my own problems and myself. I'm looking forward to learning more about... Yoga. Above all else, yoga is something that perplexes me. There’s got to be more to it than extended stretching and breathing, right?
