About Me
- Name: Brendan Loy
- Location: Denver, CO
I'm a 27-year-old attorney in Denver, Colorado. I studied journalism at USC and law at Notre Dame, and I used to blog as the "Irish Trojan." I have a wife, Becky, and a baby daughter, whose blog nickname is "Loyette." I like politics, astronomy, meteorology, college football, college basketball, computers and technology, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and lots of other nerdy stuff.
