Focused, patient, and positive is how I roll. Being the first to go full time for Local Wisdom was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. As a graduate of Rutgers University and product of New Brunswick NJ, I am humble and fortunate to have the partners that I have and the strong creative, innovative and family oriented squad that holds Local Wisdom down each and every day.
