The Senior Director of Human Resources for the FanSided Network, I have served as an editor for five of our baseball sites and have written over 1000 pieces for FanSided. Born and raised a Tigers fan, I still miss Tiger Stadium. I think Barry Bonds is the greatest player I have ever seen, regardless of steroids.
I am an alumnus of Bowling Green State University where I studied English. My wife, Valerie, and I have been married since 2008 and together we have five wonderful children.
