Hello, Tri-State!

I am delighted to join the WLWT weather team. I was raised on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I always considered myself a "beach girl" and the coastal atmosphere led me to my passion ... weather!

I watched storm after storm roll in from the Gulf of Mexico, some bigger than others. The first hurricane I remember sitting through is Hurricane Georges. In 2005, Katrina hit my hometown of Long Beach, Mississippi.

Watching the coverage before, during and after Katrina sparked something in me and I knew I wanted to be a broadcast meteorologist and help people the way they helped my community in 2005.

I obtained my professional, broadcast meteorology degree from Mississippi State in 2015.

Shortly after, I packed my bags and made way to the mountains of eastern Kentucky.

I was a meteorologist and reported for the CBS affiliate, WYMT, for two and a half years. During my time in eastern Kentucky, I visited Cincinnati and quickly fell in love with the city.

I am thrilled to now call the Queen City home!
