I'M PROUD TO HAVE CALLED LAS VEGAS MY HOME FOR TWO DECADES... AND AS A JOURNALIST, THE ENTERTAINMENT CAPITAL OF THE WORLD HAS BEEN MY 24/7 STORYTELLING PLAYGROUND FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS.
CURRENTLY, I'M A SPORTS REPORTER FOR THE MOUNTAINWEST SPORTS NETWORK (THE MTN.), WHICH AIRS NATIONWIDE AND IS THE FIRST TELEVISION NETWORK DEDICATED TO ONE COLLEGE ATHLETIC CONFERENCE. I REPORT LIVE ON THE SIDELINES FOR GAMES AND ALSO FOCUS ON PRE- AND POST-GAME FEATURES FOR THE 24-HOUR SPORTS NETWORK. I'M ALSO A SPOKESWOMAN AND HOST FOR SPORTSMD.COM AND A SWIM NETWORK CORRESPONDENT FOR USA SWIMMING.
WHEN I'M NOT COVERING SPORTS... YOU MAY SEE ME IN ACTION AROUND THE LAS VEGAS VALLEY WITH A MIC IN MY HAND AS PART OF THE LOCAL E! NEWS CREW OR EVEN WITH A NOTEBOOK AND PEN FOR A CELEBRITY NEWS MAGAZINE, AS I'M AN ENTERTAINMENT REPORTER AND FIELD PRODUCER FOR A NUMBER OF TELEVISION NETWORKS, NEWS BUREAUS AND PUBLICATIONS.
FROM ONE OF MY MORE RECENT ON-AIR GIGS, AS THE HOST AND ASSOCIATE PRODUCER OF MY OWN WEEKLY HALF-HOUR COMMUNITY LIFESTYLE TELEVISION SHOW ON LAS VEGAS' ABC AFFILIATE... TO ONE OF MY FIRST ON-AIR GIGS AS THE ENTERTAINMENT REPORTER AND PRODUCER OF A WEEKLY SEGMENT WHICH AIRED IN A DOZEN NEWSCASTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING THE NUMBER TWO MARKET ON THE KTLA MORNING NEWS... I LIKE TO THINK THAT NO ONE KNOWS THIS CITY LIKE I DO. CASE IN POINT: I WAS DUBBED "THE VEGAS INSIDER" ON E! ENTERTAINMENT TELEVISION'S DOCU-DRAMA, PARADISE CITY, WHICH WAS PRODUCED BY RYAN SEACREST PRODUCTIONS AND GO GO LUCKEY OF MTV'S LAGUNA BEACH. IN OUR FIRST PRODUCTION MEETING WITH RYAN, HE MADE THE COMMENT THAT BEING A REPORTER IN VEGAS, NOTHING PROBABLY SURPRISES ME... I AGREED... THAT IS, UNTIL THE SHOW AIRED.
ON FEBRUARY 14 OF 2007, I MADE MY WORLDWIDE LITERARY DEBUT WITH THE VERY FIRST SMART AND SAVVY BOOK ON VEGAS WRITTEN SPECIFICALLY FOR WOMEN, LAS VEGAS LITTLE RED BOOK: A GIRL’S GUIDE TO THE PERFECT VEGAS GETAWAY. BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT VISITING VEGAS, BE SURE TO PICK-UP A COPY AT YOUR LOCAL BOOKSTORE OR CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE ONLINE AT AMAZON.COM! AND BOYS, BE SURE TO CHECK-OUT LAS VEGAS LITTLE BLACK BOOK: A GUY'S GUIDE TO THE PERFECT VEGAS WEEKEND WRITTEN BY MY CO-AUTHORS, DAVID AND HIRAM.
AS A GRADUATE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL, MY COMPETITIVE SPIRIT IS A RESULT OF MY BEING A NATIONALLY RANKED SWIMMER FOR 14-YEARS. BUT AFTER NCAA’S MY SENIOR YEAR AS A TAR HEEL, I HUNG-UP MY SWIMSUIT FOR A BUSINESS SUIT.
THAT'S MY STORY AND I'M STICKING TO IT... I'LL SEE YOU ON THE SIDELINES! =)
