Charlie Hiller

I was born and raised in Mission Viejo, California, and currently live in Visalia, California. Graduated from Cal State University Fullerton in 2016 with a B.A. in Cinema and Television Arts. I've been a sports fan for my entire life, rooting for the Anaheim Ducks, Los Angeles Angels, Los Angeles Rams and Miami Heat. I’ve been writing about the Ducks since 2021, but I grew up watching Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne. Previous work includes Turf Show Times, SB Nation’s Los Angeles Rams blog.
