Jeremy and his wife Kjerstin (Keri) have three kids, ten chickens, two barn cats and an occasional rabbit. He enjoys jangly guitars, sparkling beverages, the smell of old books, DJ-ing at the Little League field, and endless hours on his lawn tractor. In a previous life, Jeremy was the all-time leading scorer in basketball at his high school and 2025 inductee into the Athletic Hall of Fame. These days he prefers golf, but will still challenge anyone to a 3-point shootout.
