Interests
I'm a Penn State alumnus, baseball fan and used to garden back when I had a life other than politics. I got into blogging while working as Interim Campaign Coordinator for Chuck Pennacchio's U.S. Senate campaign. While not a native Pennsylvanian my PA roots run deep. I left the Commonwealth for 18 years while working down south (Delaware). I'm a Democratic Committee man in Berks County but am also involved in politics all around southeastern Pennsylvania.
