About the host

Host profile image
An Alabama native who has lived in Houston and Miami so I appreciate the Big feel of a smaller town like Birmingham! So much to do here! We have a fabulous variety: Broadway series, hiking, olympians train here for biking, Robert Trent Jones golf trail plus dozens of other courses. Beautiful Lakes for fishing and water sports. Our Chef's have won the prestigious James Bearden award! Music festivals, dog parks, sports and civil rights museums... I could go on and on! If you are interested in something, please ask me! I can even hook you up with Goat Yoga (photo above)
