Years lived in Toledo: 5
Occupation: Anchor, WTOL-11
My short story: I grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada. After college I decided I wanted to move for journalism, and got a job in Michigan. I was there for about 11 months and then I moved to Toledo for my job at WTOL. I anchor the morning news, and have been for about a year. Before that, I was the weekend morning anchor, and before that I was a reporter.
