Johnny Marks

Johnny is a Twins and Vikings fan. In other words: he's no stranger to disappointment. In his free time, you'll find Johnny hanging out with his three cats (reluctantly), biking, writing about all things Iowa, and enjoying Iowa craft beer or a splash of bourbon. If there's one thing Johnny can say he is an expert on, it's craft cocktails. Cheers!
