OTHER WORK


I'm from New Jersey...
Took my first job in Medford, OR.
And now work in Albany, NY!

MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION

My time at CBS6 has allowed me to get involved with the Make a Wish Foundation of Northeast NY. I've shot commercials for the holiday campaign, covered the annual kick-off party and raised money live on air for the "Day of Wishes." We raised more than $15,000 for the foundation in one day!
I've also worked with Make a Wish on a personal level. The local chapter in northeast NY has the only annual skydiving fundraiser in the whole country! Those who raise enough money all skydive together from 13,500' up! 

reporting

When I started at CBS 6 I was the weekend/noon meteorologist. This allowed me to report during the week, often times on really fun stories. I was also the feature reporter for a thoroughbred horse racing track here in upstate NY. It was a blast! I covered American Pharoah's defeat after he won the Triple Crown. I also got an interview with Dale Romans, the trainer for Keen Ice who beat American Pharoah!

When I was in Medford I had the opportunity to work with and meet so many wonderful people and during my time there I participated in an event held annually known as "Dancing With the Rogue Valley Stars." Local celebrities and dancers compete and raise money for Sparrow Clubs, a non profit organization of school clubs that helps children and their families in medical crisis financially and emotionally. My partner Tanner Richie and I took first place in the Audience Choice Award for our salsa number! ...Anddd there never seems to be a dull moment in my life - I had the first ever wardrobe malfunction in the event's history! Yes I know, just my luck, you can watch it below!
