SEATTLE — For more than 15 years, I’ve been sharing stories across the United States. Now, I have the great honor of joining KING 5 and some of the best storytellers in the country.

This is such a beautiful part of the country and I’ve already enjoyed getting to know the people and places of Western Washington.

I came to Seattle from Cleveland, where the Great Lakes chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences recognized my work with two EMMY Awards for my tornado coverage, and for an undercover human trafficking sting.

Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, watching sports and traveling.

I grew up in the Minneapolis suburbs and played football at Southwest Minnesota State University.
