Job Title: Technical Director at KTBS 3
Hometown:Â Haughton, LA
“I love playing all sports. Golf, football, baseball, basketball. I play basketball the most but I’ve never been very good. I like to play any sport.”
Favorite thing about your job: “I like being in control and always having something new to do. I never really know what to expect until I get to work. I also like a fast-paced environment, although it seems to be slowing down, or maybe I’m just getting faster.”Â
Your inspiration: “First of all I say Jesus..But also my mom, dad and especially my brother.”Â
Your family: Dad–Terry, Mom–Vicki, Brother–Shawn…And the 18 year old blind, deaf, toothless dog Kato.
Anything people might be surprised to learn about you: “I am deathly afraid of spiders. I once burned a pair of shoes with a blow torch because a spider had made a nest in them.”
Favorite food:Â “I’m a fan of all food, but my favorite would have to be Mexican.”
Favorite saying: “Second place is the first loser.” (I obviously hate to lose at anything)“My biggest challege was trying to learn spanish. I took three semesters of it and still can’t say or read a sentence. It’s complete gibberish to me. It’s a shame because I would really like to be able to speak a second language.”
Fantasy job: “I think owning a catamaran in Hawaii that takes tourists out snorkeling every morning would be the perfect job. I think I would work about 5 hours each day and spend the rest of the day lying around relaxing. Then I would make Sparky clean my boat.”
Music: Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, The Eagles, The Beatles. This is about all I ever listen to in my iPod.
