After 21 years here, my family and I made the incredibly difficult decision to leave ABC13 Houston. Houston has been my home since 2001. For all those years, you welcomed me into yours. Without your tips, your time & most of all your trust, none of this would have been possible.

I always strived to be your neighbor first, a reporter second. Neighbors love one another, cheer each other's success & lift each other up in struggle. I start a new chapter tomorrow, filled with excitement but proud of the work we did together in the city I will always love.
