Dad of 3, husband of 1… recently entering my 50's (yikes). Tall, but not remotely intimidating. Quiet, but full of opinions. And yes — I’ve survived a brain tumor twice, so I’m basically on house money at this point.

I’ve always had a passion for sports — a 5x PCJBL Little League All-Star (my late 80's athletic peak) turned late-blooming golf hobbyist who recently shaved 31 strokes off his game (yes, 130 to 99 still counts).

I’m a Michigan State alum (Go Green), lifelong Detroit sports sufferer, and currently the Senior Marketing Manager for a national real estate investment and management firm, overseeing digital strategy and online reputation for multifamily, single-family rentals, and build-to-rent communities across the country.

I’ve spent 25+ years studying how people discover brands online — especially through reviews, photos, and real customer experiences. That turned into a side mission: helping businesses, products, and places stand out with honest, detailed, zero-BS feedback.

I’m a Google Local Guide (Level 7) with 13M+ photo views, an aspiring Amazon Vine reviewer, and — God help me — I even joined Influenster. You’ll never see me doing unboxing videos or begging for likes, but you will see thoughtful, human text and photo--based reviews from someone who actually uses the stuff.

I love watching my kids compete, tinkering with photography, and chasing life's moments. A few of my photos have been featured by Dick's Sporting Goods, Pure Michigan, Canton Leisure Services and the Hutchinson Island Marriott. It's a fun, cheap hobby.

So far.

Brands: Always open to testing real products. No gimmicks, no fake hype — just honest feedback from someone who actually uses the stuff.
