I love the high-energy and fast-paced nature of working in TV; every day brings on new challenges. There is always something or someone new to learn from which I find inspiring.”

What attracted you to this industry?
When I was three I fell in love with show business… I was theatrical in all senses. I loved to sing, dance and act, and was obsessed with old movies especially any with Judy Garland and Clark Gable. As I grew up I found a passion for film and TV. I started volunteering at my middle school and high school TV stations, then went off to college and worked at the TV station on campus. After a number of internships at news and TV networks, I knew this industry was the right place for me. I love the high-energy and fast-paced nature of working in TV; every day brings on new challenges. There is always something or someone new to learn from which I find inspiring.
What is your favorite app these days?
