About

I received my B.S. in Meteorology at Florida State University in May of 2021. I graduated Cum Laude and with Honors. Over the course of my undergraduate career at FSU I took many courses in Meteorology, Math, Physics, Communications, and completed an undergraduate thesis. In the summer of 2019 I interned at WKMG News 6 in Orlando, FL as a Broadcast Meteorology Intern. In my senior year I became a freelance Broadcast Meteorologist at WRBL News 3 in Columbus, GA. After graduating I was offered the opportunity to further my education at FSU via the Graduate School for Arts and Sciences. Over the past two years I have been working diligently to obtain my M.S. in Meteorology and I am currently in my final semester. After this semester I will have completed all coursework and defended my Graduate Thesis. Currently, I am looking to join the Meteorological workforce!
