I was in the Golf Industry for most of my life and was ready for a career change. All my life, friends and family told me I needed to be in sports broadcasting. My wife sent an email to the BMG, I spoke to Michael Madden and got in the program. I was an Intern at 600 ESPN El Paso under my mentor Steve Kaplowitz, for six months and four months after my internship through doing anything and everything I could, I became Steve's producer for his show, SportsTalk. For a five month period, I produced two shows on 600 ESPN El Paso, back to back. The chase and thrill of booking guests is also something I live to do. The drive and love I have for sportscasting and producing a "National" caliber show has made me the person and producer I am today. Favorite teams: Cleveland Browns, Chicago Cubs, Golden State Warriors, Calgary Flames, Liverpool FC, LA Galaxy, college basketball- Louisville Cardinals, college football- Tennessee Volunteers, NASCAR- Tony Stewart #14 Mobil 1/Office Depot Chevrolet, and I love any other sport you can think of... except Cricket.
