About

I’m an investigative reporter with a proven track record of carrying award-winning projects from concept to completion. My nearly two decades of experience as an on-air television reporter brings a special skillset to roles that require public speaking, public engagement, and relationship building. I’ve spent my professional career distilling complex issues into impactful and easy-to-understand stories. I also consider myself a leader and mentor to young media professionals.Career Moments (2006-present)- Assigned as the pool reporter inside the courtroom when the jury reached a verdict in the Kimberly Potter manslaughter trial.- Reported on the civil unrest during the summer of 2020 in Minneapolis, Minnesota following the tragic killing of George Floyd.
