Hi there, I'm Van Fisher, the editor for the Towson, Perry Hall, Owings Mills, and Havre de Grace Patches. I'm absolutely thrilled to be covering the Northern Maryland area - a place I have called home for the past two years. When I'm not at my desk, you can find me tubing down the Gunpowder River, watching a good movie or TV show, or savoring a Half-Cab beer from Big Truck Brewing Company. If you have any tips, news, or just want to say hello, feel free to drop me an email at van.fisher@patch.com. Looking forward to hearing from you!
