Basketball has been my passion since I was growing up in California. When I started to go to college, I turned that passion into a reality. I started doing play-by-play for the women's and men's basketball team for Shelton State Community College in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. After graduating from Shelton State in May 2014, I decided to stay home and finish my degree at the University of Alabama. As a student, I continued following in my sports media aspirations. I worked for the student radio station 90.7 the Capstone, hosting various show topics including football, basketball and classic hip-hop. I also did play-by-play for both of Alabama's basketball programs. I also started writing for the student newspaper, the Crimson White, on their sports staff, working as a contributing writer and staff reporter. Those opportunities lead to internships with Alabama Public Radio, The Tuscaloosa News, and Tide 102.9. I graduated from Alabama in May 2016 with a degree in journalism with a concentration in sports news and information. I am currently the executive producer for The Game with Ryan Fowler and brand manager of Tide 102.9/100.9. It feels good to bring my lunch room sports conversation to the airwaves.
