Michael Illiano graduated from Boston University in 2012 with a Bachelor's degree in International Relations and Journalism. He returned home to New Jersey and took a job writing for the Thoroughbred Daily News. While he continues to contribute to TDN, he is actively pursuing his interests in the larger world of arts and entertainment and politics. Michael is a news junkie and an avid reader. He is currently looking to explore this hopelessly broad range of interests through freelance writing.
