Who the @#%! is this guy?!

Hi, I'm Devan, and I am the Chief Blogger behind disKCovery! Originally from rural Missouri, I have made my home in Kansas City since 2012. I am a proud alum of both the University of Central Missouri (UCM) and the University of Central Florida (UCF). I am an avid sports fan who loves to support my collegiate and professional teams alike.

I am happiest when I am hopping on a plane or train, watching a good flick, or sharing a few drinks or a good meal with my family and friends.

I am a “Fountain City Foodie” through and through. Over the past decade, I have dined at more BBQ joints in the Kansas City metro than anyone on record. My all-time Fountain City Fantasy Meal would be to enjoy a Joe’s Kansas City Rocket Pig with a side of their fries, and a couple of KC Bier Co. Hefeweizens, while watching batting practice at Kauffman Stadium with the late, great Buck O’Neil.

An expert on nothing but always ready to chat about many things, I am simply a guy who relishes the chance I have every day to be a tourist in my own city. I love learning about where our city has been and uncovering all that is best about it now.

Now, from time to time, my wanderlust may take me away from here, but the vast majority of what I write keeps things local.

So, no matter what side of Stateline you call home, or even if you are just visiting; welcome! I hope that I can help you discover KC.
