EDITORIAL EXPERTISE
During my career, I’ve worked as a journalist, marketer, and prosecutor. While the narratives, audience, and venue have changed, my task of gathering and explaining information to others has remained the same. Breaking complicated subject matters into easy-to-understand language is one of my greatest strengths.
I’m using my expertise as a content strategist and legal journalist to help the E.W. Scripps Company with Court TV. This Atlanta-based broadcast television network covers trials and true crime. Court TV went live on May 8, 2019. It was one of my proudest moments.
director of trial tracking
I work for Court TV as the head of legal newsgathering and futures planning. My team tracks trials, gathers elements and information, and pitches the cases we think Court TV viewers would find interesting. I also manage our team of legal correspondents and handle requests for talent appearances.
See some examples of the other things I do at the network below.

OUTSIDE THE NEWSROOM
In addition to my newsroom responsibilities, I make appearances on Court TV's Closing Arguments with Vinnie Politan to talk about tracking trials.
I also provide training and guidance to my colleagues at the E.W. Scripps Company on trial tracking and legal newsgathering.
