More about me.

Tina and I live in Cleveland Heights, OH, about 15 minutes from downtown Cleveland. We're ardent sport fans, and Guardians season ticket holders. We moved here in 2018 and found charming neighborhoods, family connections, a great career at Progressive, always something to do, and the forever home for our little buddy.
