I am a 26 year-old, freedom-loving Christian with a degree in history from Metropolitan State University. I am incredibly blessed to be married to my amazing wife and to be raising two wonderful kids with her; the four of us have been living in Oakdale coming up on four years now. In addition to posting here on Patch I play guitar, writing my own music as well as playing with the group Proclamation, and post my thoughts on politics onto Liberty Pages and film onto Coffee Bean Cinema.

It is true that I hold strong opinions and have extraordinary fun expressing them as cleverly or boringly as I can - but I also sincerely respect those who disagree.
