I’m a leader. I produce Today in St. Louis at 6: the fastest growing morning show in the market. I work closely with my Executive Producer, making editorial and staffing decisions. I also work with our team of young producers, expanding their storytelling and showcasing abilities. I thrive at tease writing and integrating tools like social media to expand my television broadcast onto digital devices.

I work with a team of producers to write and manage Good Morning Kentuckiana. I craft fast-paced, hour long newscasts integrating breaking news, multiple live shots, social media, severe weather and sports. I work with our team of reporters to best showcase our stories and teases. I manage all on-screen graphics. I manage the assignment desk overnight, working to craft breaking news for the morning. I have experience using NBC VOD, ABC Pathfire and CNN Newsource. Organization and quick decision making are imperative, and I consider both personal strong points. Show less

Jul 2011 - Aug 2014
I write, manage and edit News 25 at Six and News 25 Nightside at Ten--the two most watched newscasts in the Peoria/Bloomington Market. I create fast-paced, 30 minute newscasts integrating breaking news, live shots, social media, severe weather and sports. I lead our team of reporters to best showcase our stories, bringing a sense of excitement to each newscast. I also write scripts and edit video for additional stories and teases for the show. I direct my own shows by picking cameras, video commands and manage all on-screen graphics. I coordinate live shots with talent, truck operators and engineering. In the evening, I manage the assignment desk, our website and social media content. I have experience using NBC VOD, ABC Pathfire and CNN Newsource. Organization and quick decision making are imperative, and I consider both personal strong points. I also have experience producing the News 25 five and nine PM newscasts, and the five-thirty and ten newscasts on our sister station, ABC affiliate WHOI. I was promoted to the evening shows after spending 11 months producing “HOI 19 News, Daybreak.” In that time, the two-hour morning show on WHOI moved to number one in its timeslot for the first time in the show’s decades-long history.
