I’m a certified broadcast meteorologist and I absolutely love researching, predicting, and forecasting the weather! I’m currently working in sales as an agent at Spectrum, but I put together forecasts for past viewers in my spare time. Here’s a little about my journey to become the person I am today.

All my life, I’ve been fascinated by the weather. My own mother tells me that I fell in love with it when I was 5 years old. I would take our home video camera and film lightning during the summer storms in Clearwater, FL. When I was 7, I saw my very first tornado in person when a dirt devil came within 20 feet of the car I was in before it changed direction and swerved across the street. It then tore off parts of the roof of a furniture store as we drove off. Florida State University is where I went to school for my Bachelor’s of Science in Meteorology. I joined the FSU Marching Band and the Catholic Student Union, both of which helped shape my outlook in life along with my career.

My first station was WTVY in Dothan, AL. I was only there for 6 months before being let go because I simply wasn’t good enough in front of the camera. After that, a news director in Wichita Falls gave me a second chance and I ended up working there 4 years before moving to Lubbock, TX. In Lubbock, I worked with Ron Roberts who helped oversee my attempts to get an AMS CBM seal. Once I had that, Willinger Talent Agency took me on as a client and helped me get my first big break with a weekend position in Oklahoma City at KFOR in 2014.

Since then, I’ve been a traffic tracker, a chief meteorologist, and even a sales agent, but my TV career was derailed in 2024 by alcoholism. While I used it at first just to help me sleep at night, it ended up becoming an addiction that needed time to overcome. It cost me my job at KATV in Little Rock, AR, a stain that has been tough to scrub off the resume.

Now, I embrace sobriety (sober since January 2026) as a point of pride and hope to get back into the TV field once again!

This low pressure area SW of Florida will be the second tropical system of the Atlantic season. The National Hurricane Center is in charge of numbering depressions and naming storms, so it'll depend on them whether this thing is actually labeled something. Two prominent models, the HRRR and the NAM both show rapid development in the warm gulf waters, though the intensity looks to stay rather low since there's only a limited amount of time before this thing destroys itself over land. (Corrected from first to second tropical system) ... See MoreSee Less

Hey everyone! I know I've been gone from the airwaves for a while now, but I thought I'd share some life changes.

About 2 years ago, I had a problem with alcohol. It started as just a sleep aid, but over a few years it became habitual and addictive. It cost me my job at KATV in Little Rock, AR.

Since then, I've worked on abstaining from any alcohol whatsoever and I can gladly say I've been sober for quite a while now! I've been very successful as a sales agent at Spectrum, but my heart longs to be back on TV giving forecasts. I'm applying to many different places, but no bites as of yet. I had an offer a year and a half ago, but I had to turn it down since I hadn't saved up enough money to move yet.

Now, I'm ready to get back on TV and will likely have to work my way back up. Hopefully, I'll be giving you the forecast again in the near future!

Another Monday, another chance of severe weather. This one looks more plausible than the one we had earlier this week, but it also looks more like most of it will stay in Oklahoma and Missouri. Still, all threats are possible with wind, hail, and possibly a tornado.

Widespread showers and a few non-severe storms are heading gradually eastward this afternoon towards Little Rock. Expect 1-3 inches of rain before the end of the day.

The line of storms in Oklahoma is heading our way and is expected to bring heavy rain, gusty wind, and possibly and isolated tornado to the Natural State tomorrow. It'll enter western Arkansas before sunrise and move across the state throughout the day.
