HEY
THERE!
I’ve had a chicken as a pet and used to catch lizards like it was my job. When playing sports as a child, I aimed for the fences…even if we were playing tennis. I’ve survived hurricanes, water spouts, southern blizzards and the occasional all-nighter. I love southern BBQ, old cameras, pineapples, dinosaurs and antiques.
I have an abundance of useless knowledge that breaks the ice on any occasion and I’m a wiz at game shows, especially Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune and The Price is Right.
Above all I have a passion to try new things and to explore.
