Personal Background

I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA. I attended Trinity University in San Antonio for my undergraduate degree, where I majored in Economics and developed a lasting affection for Texas. After graduating, I moved to Kansas City and spent two years working as a healthcare underwriter before moving to Los Angeles for graduate school.

After completing graduate school, I spent a year split between Seattle and Tel Aviv as I adapted to the ebb and flow of conflict. I have since returned to the East Coast and now live in Annapolis, MD where I contribute to the moral, mental, and physical development of midshipmen at the United States Naval Academy.

Outside of work, I have 3 cats — all littermates — and serve as commissioner of an extremely competitive 14-team fantasy baseball league, which I have won three times in twenty years. You can find some of my "hobby publishing" on sabermetrics here.
