Broadcast Journalist, News/Digital Media Producer

About Me

I'm a University of South Carolina alumnus from Bel Air, Maryland. I'm a Baltimore Ravens superfan... yes Lamar is the truth.

I graduated with a degree in Broadcast Journalism (with a sport media concentration) and a minor in Sport & Entertainment Management.

During my collegiate career, I was really involved with sports. I had an internship with the Lexington County Blowfish Baseball Team, hosted a sports show/reported for Student Gamecock Television, and was an SEC Network+ play-by-play broadcaster for Gamecock soccer and softball.

Outside of sports, I'm an aspiring journalist and creative media producer.

During my final semester, I worked for Carolina News where I developed a passion for local news and hard journalism.

Now, I currently work as a producer and OTT Desk specialist for WIS News 10 in Columbia, South Carolina.
