With Megan’s amazing head of hair I was very thankful for the day we had. Read more.. »

It’s a time for us to get to know each other and for me to learn what makes each person tick. Read more.. »

My role was to cover the events of the evening, covering the things on stage and also giving the crowd perspective. Read more.. »
