Garrett Gartino

Hi, I'm Garrett and I'm a 23-year old living in Tallahassee, FL. I've been a fan of New York sports despite living in Florida my entire life. I graduated with my B.S. from Florida State University, and am currently pursuing my M.B.A. with a concentration in Sports Management at Saint Leo University. Writing is my way of sharing some knowledge about the teams I love with people who want to learn more.
