I have over a decade of experience as a multimedia journalist. I have been on television, radio, film, and before live audiences as an emcee. There isn't much I have not covered. I have experience covering news, traffic, and entertainment and have worked behind-the-scenes shooting, writing, editing, and producing.
I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Broadcast Journalism with a concentration in Television from Columbia College Chicago. Since that time, I have contributed to various television and radio networks. I am currently a Traffic Anchor and Producer based in Atlanta covering the metropolitan Atlanta area and 17 other markets across the United States. I continue to flourish as an authentic, fun, and professional journalist.
