Birthplace:
My first volunteer job out of school was as sports director for CKUA radio at the University of Lethbridge. There I was on the air twice a week with a show I called "Ten Minutes of Fame", which was the length of my radio show.
From there, I got a weekend sports job at Global Lethbridge which turned into a full time gig for two and a half years. I learned how to shoot, edit and report all my own stuff and it still serves me well even today.
Quick stops in Saskatoon and Winnipeg brought me to Edmonton in 2003 and I have called the City of Champions home since then. Local sports are great, but I am finally where I want to be. Early in September of 2006, Sportsnet has provided me with the opportunity of a lifetime to host Flames broadcasts and report from both Calgary and Edmonton.
Early in December of 2010, Sportsnet provided me with the opportunity of a lifetime to host our West regions Connected shows.
