Job Title: News Producer, KTBS 3/KPXJ CW 21 News
Talents; I love dancing, singing, and editing videos (Not all at the same time)
Favorite thing about your job: Being able to write or find stories that REALLY help or inspire someone’s life
Who/what inspires you: Jesus and my mother
Your family: I’m the middle child of three and grew up going to big family reunions and Christmas gatherings (I have eleven aunts and uncles and too many cousins to count!!)
Anything people might be surprised to learn about you: I’m a lefty and a big Harry Potter fan

Favorite food: Roast Beef/Beef tips/baked potatoes
Nickname: “Flash Dance”
Favorite book: Harry Potter series (I like all 7 of them)
Favorite saying: “If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.”
Biggest challenge: Right now, it’s pulling off the weekend producing position
Craziest thing you’ve ever done: I missed a flight in Dallas and hitched a ride with six strangers at the airport. The seven of us pitched in to rent a car and took the three hour drive to Shreveport. I prayed all the way, and talked on the phone with my boyfriend and mother! Once we made it to Shreveport, I had to take a taxi to work on my overnight shift.
