I joined the Missouri School of Journalism in January 2006, moving to the Show-Me State from Tallahassee, Florida, where I taught journalism at Florida A&M University for more than four years.
Before FAMU, I enjoyed news producing jobs at:
Here at Mizzou I am an assistant professor of journalism and the Executive Producer at KOMU-TV, the university-owned NBC affiliate.
The news department at KOMU-TV is a teaching lab for students in Missouri School of Journalism Radio-TV and Convergence sequences.
I was born in Belize City, Belize (Central America) and grew up around the world as my father’s job took us to countries in Asia and Africa as well as the Belize, England and the United States.
In addition to my duties as EP and assistant professor, I am the Region 7 Director for the Society of Professional Journalists (MO, KS, NE, IA). I also serve as campus chapter adviser for the Mizzou chapter of the the National Association of Black Journalists.
DATELINE: Belize
I am working with the University of the West Indies Open Campus in Belize City to develop a week of journalism workshops for Belizean media professionals. The lecture topics grew out of a survey of Belizean journalists that I conducted last year.
