News Producer at KOMU 8

About Me

I am a producer at KOMU 8 News in Columbia, Mo. I produce the 10 p.m. show every Wednesday, 5 p.m. show on Fridays and KOMU 8 News Today Sundays at 7 a.m. and 10 a.m. Working at KOMU has taught me how to bring compelling newscasts through graphics, live shots and strong video. I've covered local breaking news and severe weather, including both winter storms and tornadoes. I believe in covering local stories that showcase the community while also bringing in national news and telling my audience how it will impact them.

Outside of the newsroom, I'm from St. Louis and am a sports fan at heart. I grew up going to Cardinals and Blues games, I also follow European sports and you can frequently see me watching Formula 1 races and Premier League soccer matches.
