Ten years ago, I embarked on an adventure. I began my first job as a broadcast meteorologist in Traverse City, MI. A decade and countless memories later, I've decided that it's time for a change.
I'm beyond excited to announce that I've accepted the role of Vice President of Sales and Marketing with International Met Systems - a weather instrument company right here in Grand Rapids!
For the first time in my entire adult life, I'll have weekends and holidays off. While I cherish all of the incredible experiences I've had in the TV business (from flying with the Blue Angels to covering Hurricane Harvey to winning this year's Snow Plow Roadeo), I've missed out on some big life experiences with people that are so very dear to me. With that in mind, this is not goodbye. West Michigan is still my home and who knows, I may occasionally pop up on 13 On Your Side from time to time

The station has asked me to stay on through January while they search for my replacement and I will continue to post on my professional page as my adventures continue so I hope you'll keep in touch!
