• Feature Reporter & Host of Fox 9 Good Day

  • Jun 2015 - Present

  Part of a four-person team that helped create 'The Jason Show,' a daily one-hour entertainment show. I was the main writer and producer for the first season. It was such a hit; 21st Century Fox gave us a national test, meaning we aired for a month in several markets including LA, Orlando and Dallas. As we get ready to begin our fourth season, I’ve transitioned to co-host and segment producer. In this position, I find, book and prep guests. To create a segment that strikes a chord on-air and online, it takes building a solid relationship with guests, and the Jason Show staff from directors to floor directors and the host. Every detail matters when you have an hour of live TV to fill every day, keeping the show moving and viewers entertained and informed. Show less

• News Producer

  • Sep 2014 - Jun 2015

  Producer and main writer for the award-winning ‘Fox 9 News.' A key part of that job was taking very complicated subjects from medical studies to court records and simplifying it for viewers while maintaining accuracy. It’s a true challenge for a writer to take an eight-page court document and sum it up in a minute, ensuring the viewer understands why it’s important and how it impacts them. And in TV news, just as you think you have everything planned out, something will change. Being able to quickly adapt and adjust while staying composed is one of the most important traits of a successful producer. Show less
