About me: Hello, thanks for checking out my profile. All kidding aside, I'm a Field Editor for Patch, covering Northbrook, Glenview, Deerfield, Arlington Heights and Buffalo Grove. I was born and raised in Upstate New York in Saratoga Springs. I moved to Chicagoland in 2014 and live here with my wife and son. I've been in the journalism/media business for going on 20 years in a variety of roles including managing editor, executive editor, news editor and sports reporter. You could say hyperlocal news is in my blood, so Patch is a perfect fit. I look forward to working with local readers and residents.
