Experience

Experiences:


My career in television has allowed me several exciting opportunities.

I am currently a morning anchor and reporter for WLFI News Channel 18 in West Lafayette. I have covered many events ranging from politics to snow storms. In 2007, I was on the WLFI set when an earthquake rocked the midwest. This was incredible learning experience for me. I was able to connect with viewers and to re-assure them, many whom had never felt an earthquake before. This is just one of the many events that have helped shaped my journalism career.

In 2005, I traveled to Bayou La Batre, Alabama with WIWU-TV 51 shortly after Hurricane Katrina. I have never seen destruction like what the waves and wind left behind.

We visited Bayou Wesleyan Church, a disaster relief site set up by World Hope International. The church became a distribution site for clothes and food and a shelter for the homeless. The donations from around the country were overwhelming. You can see the complete story of the news report from Bayou La Batre on the video page of this site.

In 2006, I traveled as part of a video team to Israel and Jordan on a Holy Land Tour in the Middle East. We traveled with Dr. Wilbur Williams (Archaeologist and professor of Old Testament documenting his 127th trip.

In 2006, I reported on a new police dog joining the Benton County Sheriff's Department. To truly get the full impact (so to speak) of the story, I strapped on a suit and let the dog attack. It's a once in a lifetime chance - unless you plan on robbing a bank.

I also had the chance to fly the blimp the Bloomin' Onion One owned by Outback Steakhouse while the ship was in West Lafayette (Purdue vs. Ohio State football game). See the complete story on the video page of this site.
