Jarrod Argobright

A 2000 graduate of The George Washington University, Jarrod is the third of five boys. He has been a fan of sports ever since he was a kid who could pick up a football. It was during his childhood where he developed a profound love of sports, as he not only played in the three major team sports(football, basketball and baseball), but he also participated on the local swim team during the summer. A native of Columbus, Ohio, Jarrod's favorite teams include the Ohio State football team (as well as the Buckeye's men's basketball team) and the Cleveland Browns, among others. Some of his favorite teams have also included the Boston Celtics during Larry Bird's heyday, the San Antonio Spurs during the era of the twin towers (Duncan and Robinson), Duke Blue Devils men's basketball, the Cleveland Indians, and the New York Yankees. Jarrod graduated from GW with a bachelor of arts in international affairs, so he also has an innate interest in national and international politics. In addition to attending George Washington, Jarrod spent a semester abroad in Salamanca, Spain, and also interned in DC for Senator Mike DeWine(OH) and Representative Mike Ferguson (NJ). Among Jarrod's other interests are movies and music.
