News Anchor
-
Feb 2012 - Mar 2018
I anchored Monday through Friday’s noon and 5 p.m. newscasts. I also led the investigative team. The opportunity allowed me to tell in-depth stories. I have excellent news judgment. I enjoy sharing my passion for news with others. I consider myself a newsroom leader. If a story I have done touches or saves one life, I believe I have made a difference.

Reporter/Bureau Chief
-
Jul 2009 - Feb 2012
I worked in the Valdosta, Georgia bureau for nearly three years for WALB-TV. I found stories and followed them down for the number one station in the market. I was the first reporter on the scene to many stories. I broke stories on almost a daily basis. I built excellent sources and maintained those relationships. I shot, wrote, and edited ALL of my own material. I covered a wide range of memorable stories like wildfires in Clinch County and a wild hog chase through a Valdosta neighborhood. Many of my stories were picked up by CNN including the day a man was finally released from jail. He was wrongfully jailed for failing to pay child support on a child that did not belong to him.

I worked as the media coordinator for the City of Valdosta, operating the television station and anchoring the shows.

I produced all other programming for the City of Valdosta including public service announcements and short videos. I uploaded programming to the video server for broadcast and created programming schedules. I was instrumental in getting the channel moved from channel 96 to channel 17 on the dial. I also helped the public information officer organize a big media event to celebrate the milestone. Show less
