Sports DirectorIt is my pleasure to now be part of the News13, News team. I look forward to bringing you the most accurate reporting of local news any where on the Emerald Coast.
I came to the Gulf Coast via Tyndall Air Force Base in 1987. After serving my country proudly, I continued my education at Gulf Coast Community College and Florida State University Panama City Campus.
After earning a degree in Broadcasting I took a job with an NBC affiliate where I stayed for five years. After a brief hiatus from the news business, I returned in January 2007 here at WMBB, News13.
I’m very happy to be back in the saddle of local media and would like to say that none of my work experience would be meaningful without the support and love from my family. My wife, Donna and my two daughters Devann and Cassidy.
