My work has been featured at the national level, most recently as a guest on FOX News Channel.

I worked with a tutor at the University of Southwestern Louisiana to build my reading and reciting skills. My first cousin, Dennis John Cahill, is a well known radio and announcing personality whom I have learned much from in my career.

Frequently I speak at public events and have acted as master of ceremonies many times during my career.

Specialties in public announcing are music and pageants.

I love to draw in the audience for participation.

A huge boxing fan, I would love someday to do color work or announce a boxing card.
