I am a graduate of the University of Tennessee: College of Communications. I spent my childhood in Knoxville and Atlanta, Georgia, where I managed to not become a Bulldog fan.
I worked in radio throughout college and was an anchor for the university's student TV news broadcast, The Volunteer Channel. I started at WYMT as a reporter in November 2021.
I look forward to meeting you all and telling your stories!
