I was born and raised in Denver, Colorado. I am currently a freshman at the University of Missouri and am majoring in convergence sports journalism. I am a die hard Rockies fan and still dream of those 2007 playoff days. Coors is one of my favorite ballparks, because of the bullpens, the atmosphere, and of course the view of the mountains. I am a rabid sports fan and also love the Dallas Mavericks, Minnesota Vikings, Nebraska Cornhusker football, and North Carolina basketball. I am excited to cover the Rockies for Fansided and talk some baseball.
