I am a diehard Philadelphia sports fan who closely follows the Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, and Sixers. As a Villanova Law grad, I also love watching the Villanova men’s basketball team compete in the NCAA tournament every March.
Hiking. As a Chester County native, I especially love to explore the trails at Valley Forge National Historical Park.
I have a dog named “Winnie.” Winnie is a rescue from Kentucky. We don’t know for sure what breed she is, but she appears to be an English pointer/hound mix.
