I'm very excited to be living in the Bluegrass. I cannot explain how wonderful it is to be working alongside Barbara Bailey and Bill Bryant!
For me, I am a newly married man. My wife D'Arcy and I got married in suburban Detroit on 8-8-08. D'Arcy is a Williams College graduate who also is an ice skater and coach. She is the love of my life and I'm looking forward to our lives together. The ceremony and reception was actually held in the backyard of my parent's house. ***Just for the record: It was 75-degrees under a mostly sunny sky during the ceremony :)
I grew up in the Metro Detroit area and graduated from Michigan State University (don't worry, while I'll always be a Spartan at heart, I have already found it easy to root for UK). Being a fan of every Detroit sports team, I can thank Kentucky for Tayshaun Prince.
While I've been a meteorologist for almost 8 years, I didn't always work in television. I moved to Southern California right after college and started working at the Walt Disney Studio Lot in Burbank as well as a sixth grade math/science teacher. I also performed as a stand-up comic in and around the Los Angeles area for several years (I have been on stage at several Los Angeles comedy clubs such as the Improv in Hollywood and Pasadena’s Icehouse). After several years out west, I got into the television news business and moved closer to home. I've worked in such places as Rhinelander, Wisconsin; Flint, Michigan; and for our Gray sister station WSAZ in Huntington/Charleston, West Virginia. I earned the Certified Broadcast Meteorologist (CBM) Seal from the American Meteorologist Society (AMS) in 2007. The CBM seal is the highest broadcast meteorologist standard issued by the AMS. I first earned the AMS Television Seal of Approval in 2006.
