RAISING MONEY FOR: Will be announced soon!
- I’m not a big planner when it comes to vacations, I’ll buy a ticket abroad about a week out and make it up a I go along… I’ve also bought an international plane ticket a week out with an expired passport, thank goodness for Atlanta government!

- "'You miss 100 percent of the shots you don't take'- Wayne Gretzky"-Michael Scott (Here’s to hoping none of those shots land on my face!)
- I teach Lagree fitness at SculptHouse in Green Hills three days a week, if you think you have a strong core… You should really try a megaformer ;)
- I am a completely brainwashed New England Patriots fan… Tom Brady is the GOAT, #InBillWeTrust, if you’re not cheating you’re not trying!
- I can be the definition of a MassHole on the road… What’s a blinker? I also know how to merge “properly.”
- Ever since I told my sister I was going to be boxing, she’s now referring to me only as the Boston Bruiser.
- My most played song of 2017 was also my most played song of 2018, and I listen to over and between those two years I listened to OVER 156K minutes of music. But… the song does reference Tom Brady in the first 15 seconds (Do It Again – Pia Mia, Chris Brown, Tyga)
- In my head, this event will be just like the Boy Meets World episode ‘The Thrilla’ In Phila’’ but wait… wasn’t that wrestling?! Oh crap ;)
- I DON’T LIKE TO LOSE… EVER
