Well folks, its been a while. But I promise you it's worth the wait... Tons to report... 1st and most importantly, I am engaged! This happened back in April. 2nd I am no longer a reporter, I am a News Director and Anchor for the NBC station in Eureka, CA. Let me tell you how I got this job...
It was late one night and I was flipping through jobs on TV jobs.com... I thought to myself, "I could totally do what my old news director did and I could do it better! So, I switched over to the N.D. jobs and BOOM, there was an opening, in Northern California, close to my hometown, there was one problem... It closed the next day. So, around 11pm I applied (was up til after midnight) I walked out to the living room, told my fiance that I applied for a news director job just for "shits and giggles"... 9 hours later I recieved a call from the General Manager and the day after that I was flying into one of the most beautiful places in the country for an interview. Around 5pm, a contract was put in front of me and 2 days after that I signed it!!! We packed up, moved here, got an incredible house and my fiance landed a GREAT teaching job.
So, here I am, here we are. I am helping young reporters get to where they want to be. I am teaching them about news content and how important it is to always be a journalist no matter what. I am managing the news room, anchoring shows, drinking a lot of coffee and loving it. And when I'm not at the station, we are on the beach with our dog, sitting outside on our deck reading, or enjoying time at the Harbor... This is truely "the life!"
Thank you for all your support and thank you for believing in me!!!
