Upon enrolling in the Journalism program at the University of Illinois, I eagerly sought out positions as an on-air talent. I was hired on at WPGU FM in Champaign, where I went on to be a news reporter, sports reporter, became Sports Director, and additionally worked as the station's commercial/VO talent.
I've since worked at ESPN Radio, where I provided color commentary on their programming. i provided voice over used on multiple albums by Chicago bands. I'm currently working as a voice over talent for several independent film projects and upcoming podcast releases from Theare Group.
