I began my broadcast career in television (ABC & CBS) where I earned an Emmy nomination for producing the PSA "Frankie." Since 1989 I've done voiceovers for TV and radio. As a network radio News Anchor/Reporter, I also have experience with news interviews, long-and short-form segments, and podcasts. I have had my own evening show on a Smooth Jazz Station and have experience in corporate narratives. Currently, as a News Operations Manager / Multimedia Reporter my work can be heard on sister radio networks in 50 states, on 850 signals.
