For as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to share my creativity with the sports world. It didn’t matter what I’d be doing. I just knew I could (and needed to) contribute to it in endless ways.

That passion led me to becoming a professional storyteller at the University of Texas at Austin’s School of Journalism and Media. Through the student-media program, I had the opportunity to report for various outlets like Texas Student Television, where I covered marquee events, including the College Football Playoffs, NCAA Women’s March Madness and SEC baseball.

After graduating in May of 2025, I wanted to continue learning about and building on my love for sports broadcasting. My aspirations ultimately brought me to Texoma next, where I became the Sports Director at News Channel 6 KAUZ-TV, the region’s CBS affiliate. Settling into a new community, I focused on using my role as a way to better connect and engage with my audiences in order to deliver them quality sports content on the nightly news. The opportunity also allowed me to grow my real-world leadership skills, being tasked daily with deciding which content the sports department would cover and how it would be reported.

My love for sports doesn’t end with just broadcasting though. I’m also fascinated by the ways they’re marketed towards fans, the industry’s ever-changing media landscape and, of course, the countless traditions that make everyone so obsessed with their favorite leagues and teams. Wherever in the sports world you may find me, never hesitate to reach out and connect! In the meantime, feel free to dive in and take a look at some of the unique work experiences that have made me proud of being part of such a strong community!
