Reporter

I cover a variety of topics and issues that involve Hamilton City Council and the city's administration, including new ordinances, budget planning, community and economic development projects as well as concerns raised by residents and business owners. I graduated from Miami University with a degree in English Journalism and a minor in Botany. I initially took classes at Miami University Hamilton after transferring credits from The Ohio State University. Whenever possible, I take advantage of the excellent fishing opportunities around Hamilton on the Great Miami River.
