About Luke

I love sports. Sports have always been a part of my life from tee-ball to playing college tennis to enjoying a seven-year career in athletic communications and broadcasting. Now, I am pursuing a Master's in Counseling Psychology. But my heart is always connected to sports and so I freelance to balance out the rigors of graduate school.
