How it all started
My broadcasting journey began when I was 7 years old. I sat in the press box of my little league baseball field and pretended to broadcast the “big kids” game with one of my teammates. Since then, I have had opportunities to broadcast an array of sports at Indiana Wesleyan University and completed a broadcasting internship with the Northern League’s Elkhart County Miracle.
My story
My love for sports started at a very young age. I started playing sports when I was five years old, starting with soccer, and quickly moving onto baseball. During my high school years, I played three years of basketball and three years of Tennis. I always knew I had a passion for sports and I wanted to use that passion in a future career.
My desire to work in communication also started when I was young. I loved communicating with others and I always felt like I could have a conversation with anybody. Coming to Indiana Wesleyan gave me the opportunity to hone my communication skills and use them to be a storyteller. I had opportunities to work in the sports information department, on our campus radio station 94.3 The Fortress, writing stories for our school newspaper, and as executive director for our campus media team, Amplify Media.
As of April 2024, I graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University with a Bachelor of Arts in Multimedia Communication and Sports Management. In June I began my career with Kaspar Broadcasting in Frankfort, IN as the Sports Director and Account Executive.
Just For Fun
When I’m not working, you’ll probably catch me watching sports. I am working on visiting every Major League Baseball stadium and currently have 7/30. I also enjoy spending time with my wife, friends, and family. When it’s warm outside, I love playing pickleball, tennis, or basketball. I’m an avid coffee drinker and always in the mood for a good action movie.
