OCCUPATION: weekend 10pm news anchor/reporter for WDRB-TV FOX 41 in Louisville, KY

I'M NOT YOUR TYPICAL TV REPORTER/ANCHOR. I love math, majored in economics, made a perfect score on the PSAT writing exam, and got near-perfect scores on other sections of the SAT and SAT II. I speak four languages and am familiar with several others. I'm a ballet dancer and opera singer. I also enjoy ballroom, hip hop, and modern dance; I like singing pop and jazz, too. I've traveled around the world to hundreds of cities in 15 countries on four continents. I'm all-natural -- never had hair coloring, fake tan, cosmetic surgery, braces, or retainers. I love exotic and spicy foods. I'm bold, hard-working, moral, and brutally honest. I hate laziness, dishonesty, corruption, and waste, which is why my heart is in investigative reporting. I love animals and support several animal-rescue charities. In the past, I've modeled, acted, and made films.
