I became employed at WTRF in 1998 as a production Tech, operating cameras, prompter, and sound board for newscast. Several years later I moved to overnight master control position, a positionI held for almost 5 years, I was in charge of keeping the shows on the air and on time, plus inserting the commercials when scheduled. Later I trained and became a news videographer / editor, working in the news room, covering stories from fires to interviewing Barack Obama during his campaign for the presidency to the munchkins from the Wizard of Oz. Last year I moved to the overnight news producer position,  producing the 5 and 6 a.m. newcast.
 
In my spare time I enjoy working on my classic muscle cars, while enjoying some good old classic rock and roll.
