Sports have always been at the forefront of my life-- playing everything from volleyball to basketball to tennis to golf and waterskiing. When I realized my sophomore year at the University of Richmond that I didn't want to continue down the pre-med/ biology track, I made a huge pivot to journalism and communication studies to ultimately pursue a career in sports broadcasting. It was the best decision I could have made because I truly feel like I've found my calling, being able to cover sports and tell people's stories for a living.

I began my career in Hagerstown, Maryland where I worked my way up to Sports Director, moved to be the Weekend Sports Anchor in Roanoke, Virginia, then on to New Orleans, Louisiana and now to Tampa, Florida.
