I like to think I was the first in creating the concept of fantasy football! OK, maybe a little wishful thinking. Ever since I was a kid, I've been drawn to sports. Growing up, sports was an ever-present topic in my household and it bonded me to the experience of learning about every sports, studying the games, and placing bets on the winning teams. At a young age I was already filling my notebooks by profiling players and building imaginary teams with my friends before the days of Yahoo, ESPN, Draft Kings or FanDuel. If I knew then what it would become now! To this day, I spend many of my days conducting research on teams and calculating the odds to stay up to date on the latest status with players and teams before making my best educated guess on bets for the week.

Along with sports, I've had a long time passion for creative writing at an early age. I not only enjoy writing about sports, but I also have interests in musical composition. In college I pursued degrees in Physical Education and Kinesiology along with a Teacher Credential. I've enjoyed introducing new programs at my current job at Tel Hi that include a Hip Hop music class, Meditation Practice, and Awards Ceremony to the elementary school after school program.

As much as I have enjoyed my time as a Teacher and Program Lead, I can't help but be drawn to one of my foremost passions. I believe there is a great opportunity for growth in the Sports Betting Industry and can see a clear developing trend that this is becoming a mainstream activity in the sports world. I am curious about the opportunities available to enter this as a career and would appreciate learning more and exploring what skills would help make me a strong candidate. I hope to hear from you!
