About Me

I’m an Emmy Award-winning morning anchor and lifestyle host on two #1 morning shows at FOX5 DC, one of the most watched stations in the DC region.

 

I have a B.A. in Journalism/ Media Studies and a minor in Japanese from Rutgers University. I have spent most of my nearly 15-year career sharing meaningful stories, pitching and co-producing lifestyle segments that helped elevate local businesses, and building trust across communities in every market I’ve worked.

 

While I have an extensive background in hard news as a multimedia journalist, I thrive in areas of lifestyle and entertainment. I have strong interview instincts and experience in content creation for traditional and digital media. Versatility is my superpower.

 

Prior to joining FOX 5 DC , I was an evening anchor at 12 on Your Side WWBT, the #1 station in Richmond, VA. While in Central Virginia, I covered stories that made national headlines, like the tragic shooting of three beloved University of Virginia football players. I’m deeply passionate about empowering local communities, which was a big part of my "Building a Better RVA" franchise following the covid pandemic.

​

My formative years include time as a multimedia journalist (MMJ) at WBOC CBS/ FOX in Salisbury, MD, and Prince George’s Community Television (CTV). 

​

I’m an advocate for the ALS Association DMV Chapter. I also hope to raise more awareness about early detection of breast cancer.

​

I’m a member of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) and spent years as a mentor for the Rutgers Alumni Mentoring Program.
