During my time with BUTV10, I …. 
was the Anchor for Terrier Nation for three years and the Executive Producer of the show for two. It was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life- we built the show from the ground up. I was involved in every facet of the show from segment ideas, to the show name and even the decision on the final logo. BUTV10 allowed me to be creative, which I found to be one of my own personal strengths. Outside of television industry, one of my jobs is to create protocol, strategy and raise efficiency for the company, ’47. That position is using the creative side that I developed during my time on Terrier Nation. The same questions that are asked while creating and producing a show can be used in any business “What’s the best way to do this? Will everyone else like/watch this? How can we do this even better?
Since BUTV10, I’ve…
I’ve been fortunate enough to continue working with BU Athletics as the color commentator for men’s basketball, the Public Address announcer for men’s and women’s ice hockey and hosting multimedia shows for the website such as “Terriers Take 5”, “Weekend Preview” and “Terrier Top 3.  I remain active in collegiate athletics and even had the pleasure of being the Public Address announcer at Fenway Park for a Red Sox game and other college baseball games.
I also work full-time at Brand ’47 in their sales operations department.
My advice to current BUTV10 students is…
Keep tapping at the stone. The probability of you becoming the #1 anchor in New York City right out of college is slim. However, if you love this industry, remain in it. Continue to work in the field and keep making yourself available for the perfect situation to come along.
My number one lesson I’ve learned since joining the industry is…
Be willing to adapt. Journalism has changed immensely just in the 10 years I’ve been in the field following college. Some success will come just in having an open-mind and understanding how it’s changing.
