A Word From Andrew McLemore

The written word always called to me. I spent many years in journalism covering local government and criminal justice.  Now I write about the outdoor sports and gear industry for AllGear Digital, where I handle daily news, new gear, and in-depth stories.

My personal interests include music, travel, books, and time with my family.
