I am an Alabama native (born in Birmingham) and became interested in meteorology at a young age. I recently graduated from Mississippi State with a B.S in Broadcast Meteorology. I am a huge Mississippi State Baseball fan. I love spending time with my dog Phoebe which you can see during my shows' segment “Phoebes Forecast”.
