About

I’m a proud alumna of Texas Tech University. I work for the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal. I do my best to combine my knack for editing with my lifelong passion for sports. Tony Kornheiser is one up on me. He was an English major too, but he has his own show.

I have been known to brake for sports museums, or cry over the final score. There's no shame in that—at least I can admit it ;)

I love everything about sports media.

I'm a B/R editorial intern - send your articles my way for revisions and feedback!

Short List

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Texas Tech Red Raiders, San Antonio Spurs, Pittsburgh Steelers, Dallas Cowboys, Carolina Panthers, Texas Rangers.

  • All Time Sports Moment

    My dad is an airline pilot. He used to fly the Pittsburgh Steelers charter back in the Cowher days. When they landed in Arizona for Super Bowl XXX, he waved a Terrible Towel out his cockpit window. It caused quite a scene. Chris Berman and the ESPN crew caught it all. I was the coolest kid in the entire elementary school.

    Nicklaus, no question.
