Thanks for reading and feel free to send me a question at or comment anytime. Finally, I also love to travel, particularly across the southeastern United States, and to spend time with family and friends. Hopefully, one day, the Mountaineers can obtain one of those coveted national titles. I've rooted for WVU through thick and thin since I was about 5 years old, no matter the record or ranking.

Although I respect and wish all in-state schools well, my heart belongs to the West Virginia University Mountaineers. Football, basketball, golf and baseball are my favorite sports. When I'm not tracking the weather or doing some news reporting, I love watching and playing sports, so you can pretty much call me a sports junkie. Although I learned invaluable tools there and made some good friends, I was ecstatic to come back home and have an opportunity with WCHS, a station I grew up watching! I feel very blessed knowing that my job also is my hobby.īefore I came to WCHS, I spent nearly two years as the morning meteorologist at WDTV in Bridgeport/Clarksburg. I hope to bring this entire region accurate and reliable weather information.

In fact, watching cartoons was usually replaced with the Weather Channel or WCHS weathercasts. Produced, assembled, stacked, and timed cohesive 30-minute shows. The weather has been a strong passion of mine since I was a young child. Produced and presented weather segments (7-day, national, local forecast) on green screen. After that, I finished up my meteorological education at Mississippi State University, where I graduated with a broadcast meteorology degree. I graduated from Sissonville High School in 2003 and went on to study meteorology at West Virginia State University, where I obtained an associate degree in atmospheric sciences. We will remain dry on Monday due to a high pressure system over the region, but this does not last much longer. Being born and raised in Kanawha County, I am proud to call myself a West Virginia native. Monday evening will not be as cold, but into the 40s for overnight lows.
