About

I'm an EMMY award-winning journalist with more than 10 years of experience as a reporter. I was also a winner of the 2021 Multimedia Journalist Florida Broadcasting Association Award for large market television.I'm originally from the small town of Greenfield, Iowa. In my career as a journalist I've worked at KCCI, Des Moines, IA; KCWY, Casper, WY; FOX26, Fresno, CA; and has called Florida my home since starting at ABC Action News in 2017.My favorite things to cover are environmental issues, animal stories, and any story showing positivity and hope. I also have a deep passion for telling the stories of veterans in honor of my late father who was a Vietnam veteran and struggled with PTSD and addiction. Aside from work, I enjoy doing mission and humanitarian work. I also enjoy hanging out with my basset hound Millie, running, going to the beach, and, most importantly, spending time in my faith.
