Favorite thing about Northeast Wisconsin: Being on the water!

Favorite sports team: I don't really have favorite sports teams anymore, just favorite players and favorite memories. But the Boston Bruins will always be the team that got me into this business!

Favorite movie: Miracle

Favorite vacation spot: Maine!

Something most people don't know about me: I'm ambidextrous and can juggle.
