I love people and their stories. I consider it a privilege to be trusted with covering the news and reporting it. My favorite genres are sports, pop culture and entertainment.

I am a native Texan, born and raised in Houston. I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Broadcast Journalism from Southern Methodist University. I got my big break as an anchor for Channel One News in Los Angeles. I've also had the pleasure of reporting for FOX Sports Detroit, the ESPN family of networks, Yahoo! News, Yahoo! Sports and BET News.

Right now, you can see me on Morning Express with Robin Meade.

When I'm not working, I'm enjoying time with my family and friends, running through Piedmont Park, practicing yoga or in a spin class working on my fitness.
