I have worked as a professional journalist for over 30 years, dating back to my years
in college. Currently I am the editor and chief writer for IN Magazine, a magazine
about the culture of East Texas. I also write for the Tyler Morning Telegraph. I also
help edit a parenting magazine, “Small Town Kids.”
My duties include creating content presented in print, digital (websites and social
media) and video formats. I am a co-host for a web-based show called “INLive,” that
features content from the magazine.
Over the years, I have served as an on-air contributor to the CBS-19 TV in Tyler and
for six months hosted a local radio program called “In Touch with East Texas.”
I have taught students how to write better and write for mass media for six years.
Education
I have a bachelor’s degree from The University of Texas at Austin and a master’s degree
from The University of Texas at Tyler. I receive ongoing professional development.
