Fun facts
Outside of your traditional nerd stuff like video games, music, and movies; I’m obsessed with weather. But my big-time additional hobby is The Fantasy Wars. 7 Years ago, I started a yearlong fantasy sports league that combines all major sports and other sport related events. You earn points throughout the year and we crown the champion every April.
