A bit about me
I live in upstate NY near the beautiful Lake Ontario. When I am not at work, I find many ways to keep myself busy. I am often out running with my dog, Coco, training for some upcoming race. As a family we ride dirt bikes in the summer and snowboard in the winter. If there is any time left after that, I’ll be hanging out with a good book.
