Hey everyone. One thing you’ll immediately notice about me is my annoying positive outlook on life. You’ll find Tony Robbins quotes on my Twitter page, self-reflecting books on my desk, and my podcast list consisting of Tim Ferriss, Oprah Winfrey, and Bigger Pockets. I’m also a bit of a real estate nut.
Now that we have that out of the way, here’s my hope for our Take 5 community. I’m hoping that I can help bring good news, a positive outlook, and upbeat stories back to TV. It’s been a rough couple of years and it seems like doom-and-gloom keep popping up around every corner. But if you look beyond those corners, you’ll see a lot of love, hope and good things happening in life. I want to showcase those stories and bring people the feel-good moments that make us smile.
Before I took the evening meteorologist position with KING 5 I was working as a lifestyle host and morning meteorologist in Austin, Texas. That’s such a special city. I was there for about five years, but before that I was back here in the Pacific Northwest. I’ve lived in the Tri-Cities (Eastern Washington) and Eugene, Oregon. I miss parts of Austin, but you can’t deny this PNW beauty. It feels good to be back in my favorite city in the U.S. Heck, I can surf and snowboard in the same day, which I have yet to do but it’s the #1 goal on my short-term bucket list.
I’ll end with one of my favorite quotes: “People over estimate what they can do in a year and drastically under estimate what they can do in a decade.” – Tony Robbins.
