Originally from Abbeville, I now call Lafayette home. When not filling in for Steve or Jaycee, I'm spending time with my beautiful family, working towards an MFA in Creative Writing, substitute teaching, and producing podcasts for various clients. When I have free time, I enjoy geeky pursuits like reading comic books, watching superhero, sci-fi, horror, and action movies and TV series, collecting related memorabilia, and hosting geek podcasts of my own.
