Why She’s a Semifinalist: She's been reporting some of the toughest stories in town for 11 years with CW33. Her personal story archive includes category 5 storms, serial killers on death row, and human tragedies that, she says, are challenging but important to cover. When she’s not communicating the news, she’s home with her family: her husband and three kids. They’re all about activity, choosing gardening, hiking, and hitting the gym over cooking and dining out. Fitness is a priority, but she’s got her guilty pleasures, too, and they include anything covered in frosting. Bring cake or donuts to her office, and she'll be first in line.
