After receiving my journalism degree from the University of Texas in 1992, I began this amazing journey that has opened my eyes to one simple thing — everyone has a story. I have been blessed through the years to tell many of these stories.
While I have always leaned toward sports coverage, which included a published book called Burned Orange and publishing my own monthly Austin-based sports magazine called Capital City Sports Report for more than four years, I have really enjoyed going outside of my comfort zone to learn and write about a variety of non-sports-related subjects.
I have written for a wide array of publications, ranging from major metropolitan newspapers to unknown pubs in unknown industries.
While I'd be lying if I said I had always dreamed of being a journalist growing up, I can't help but fondly reflect on my time in this business and be thankful it's the path I've chosen. It's undoubtedly been a circuitous trip with multiple entrepreneurial stops along the way.
I'm currently a NASCAR writer for AthlonSports.com and host of the YouTube channel Beating and Banging.
