Hello! I have been a Meteorologist at FOX 7 since 2004. Before that, you may have seen me over on News 8 Austin where I worked for five years. Before that, I worked in Waco and San Angelo. Except for the two years that I was in Waco and San Angelo, I have been in the Austin area since 1988. I attended college that year at Texas State University. Since that time, I have seen many very memorable weather events around here... with the Jarrell Tornado in 1997 and the Christmas Flood of 1991 at the top of the list. I'll never forget driving out to Lake Travis and seeing the water level almost to the top of the spillway on Mansfield Dam... and five floodgates open!

I love this area... and the extreme weather! I grew up in Houston, and made my first trip to Austin in the early 1980s. I couldn't believe how beautiful it was... and so different from Houston. I knew then that I wanted to get here as soon as possible. Austin has changed so much in the last 20+ years that I've been here... but it still has that charm!

In my spare time, I am involved in what seems like a never-ending home remodeling project. If the weather is nice, I enjoy long bike rides around Austin, traveling(especially around Texas), or just finding some new or different event or function around the area. I am also a weekly volunteer for Meals on Wheels.
