About

I am majoring in Sports Journalism at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism at ASU. I have a background in freelance video and news reporting but have sense developed a love for producing since I have been here. I have helped produce an award winning show called Cronkite Sports Live in my Sophomore year and am currently Technical Directing for the Varsity Sports Show. I enjoy working in fast paced, high stakes environments which is one thing I love about producing live shows.
