  • I never thought I'd ever have a job where I'd have my own body armor, and have to take it with me on about half my travels! And won an Emmy Award doing it! But it's sure worked out well, and I wouldn't trade it for anything!

  • I was raised in Bloomington, IL and graduated from Central Catholic High School. I spent 4 wonderful years at the University of Missouri. I graduated from the Honors College and the School of Journalism. Go Tigers!
