Hey there! I’m a sports fan who bleeds black and gold for all our hometown teams – the Steelers, Penguins, Pirates – you name it. When I’m not cheering on the Steelers at Heinz Field or tossing back an Iron City at PNC Park, you can probably find me scouting out new hole-in-the-wall restaurants to review or planning my next weekend road trip.
