About

I am an award-winning journalist, who started my career in New York City as a newspaper reporter. Shortly after starting, I became a television news reporter and worked for several television news shows, including the "Evening News" at WNBC TV and the 51st State at WNET TV, where I hosted a weekly television show called "Dateline New Jersey." I also worked for Newsweek’s Broadcasting Unit, where I produced syndicated stories to air nationally.In California, I worked as the Editorial Director for KNTV TV in San Jose and won an Emmy from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, a Golden Medallion from The State Bar of California for Distinguished Reporting, and an “Excellence in the Media” award from the San Jose community. I've also received numerous awards for my work in the media. In February 2018, I was inducted into the Black legends Hall of Fame in Silicon Valley in recognition for my contributions in the field of media and in November 2018, I was honored with an award for excellence in journalism by the San Francisco Press Club for an EPA Today blog post I wrote called, Celebrating History and Diversity.
