OK-Here's a little on my background. I come to Abilene from Shreveport, LA. I was a photographer at KTAB's sister station there. I have been there for the last 5 years. I graduated from the University of North Texas in 2004. I've covered a lot of cool stuff. After only a year there Katrina hit. Then Rita. Between those two storms I spent 8 weeks on the road covering the aftermath. I spent a week in San Diego covering Marine recruits going through basic training. While I was there, the reporter and I interviewed Bob Dole, who happened to be signing books at the time. I have met countless celebrities at various events. Nascar races at Texas Motor Speedway are a melting pot for famous people; you never know who you are going to bump into. Sports trips are the best part of this job. I was on the field for the BCS National Championship game in January 2008 (LSU vs. Ohio State in New Orleans). Other bowl games I've attended include the '07 Sugar Bowl (LSU vs. Notre Dame) and the Chick-Fil-A- Bowl last season (LSU vs. Georgia Tech). I've also been to the New Orleans Bowl a few times, and the Independence Bowl many times because that game is in Shreveport.
Next up...a little on what I've been up to since moving to Abilene. Stay tuned!
