I am former resident of South Jersey and Upstate New York now residing in Eastern NC. I grew up in the 80s and 90s and have followed by Phillies, Flyers, and Eagles ever since. I have been a history teacher since 2005 and am a big time sports and movie nerd. I live with my wife and small crazy dog. I have been a writer and contributor to Broadstreetbuzz since 2022.
