Tell us about your life outside of the AGA

I’m originally from the Oklahoma panhandle, but I’ve lived in Denver since 2018 and previously lived in North Carolina and California. My hobbies are pretty standard for Okie transplants, motorcycle riding, hunting, skiing, and the occasional fishing trip. I also enjoy reading and I’m always happy to talk books or just sit around and read.
