Prior to coming to Patch, I was with North Jersey Media Group, covering both Oradell and River Edge with the Town News for the past three years first as a report and then as the Managing Editor.

Born and raised in Northern New Jersey, I left the Garden State to attend Arcadia University in Pennsylvania, just minutes outside of Philadelphia. While at Arcadia, I was a staff writer and photography editor for the school newspaper, The Tower along with working as a staff intern for the Germantown Courier and Mt. Airy Times.

In my spare time, I can be found out jogging with my dogs or participating as a fencer of the Society of Creative Anachronism (SCA).
