I was born and raised in Greensboro, North Carolina, an area just outside Winston-Salem.
I grew to love South Carolina while attending college for music at Furman University in Greenville, SC. After graduation I decided to make South Carolina my permanent home, moving to the Columbia area four years ago.
In my spare time, I enjoy playing piano, going out to hear live music around Columbia (especially jazz) and spoiling my sweet poodle, Ray.
