A transplanted NY'er residing in Ballwin for the last 18 years with my wife and three children. Not your typical New Yorker, creative, witty, outgoing and opinionated are ways I would describe myself. A freelance writer who's very active in the community with 7th grade twins at St Clare of Assisi and a freshman at St John Vianney. I aim to give you a unique look at Ballwin-Ellisville from a local yet outsiders point of view. An avid writer, cartoonist and social media "expert" I look forward to covering everything from businesses to sports and everything in between!

Personally I love computers, sports, music, television and writing and doing stand-up comedy. I really enjoy coaching basketball and baseball, attending concerts, reading, cartooning, playing with my Weimaraner and Doberman, the Grateful Dead and spending quality time with my family. I have a passion for social media, peanut butter & jelly sandwiches and any & all Law & Order's. I also run a small Italian Ice company Dice's Italian Ice.
