I am a native of Western New York and proud of it! I grew up in Gerry, NY and attended college at Syracuse University (go Orange!). During high school I spent my summers scooping ice cream and flipping burgers at my parent's restaurant. I guess that's partly why I'm so interested in the restaurant business and enjoy checking out new, unique places to eat! Be sure to catch my Unique Eats segment every Saturday on Daybreak!
