National Digital & OTT Director
Nexstar
What was your first position in the Media Industry and what is your current role?
I started in 2014 as a Digital Account Manager. My job was to input digital orders and traffic banner ads across our local news website. Fast forward to 2025 and I am now the National Director of Digital and OTT. It’s funny how many of the things I learned in 2014 are still applicable to what I do today!
What inspired you to become involved in Alliance for Women in Media?
The other members! Many co-workers throughout my career have been passionate members of AWM. When others feel so strongly about an organization, it’s hard for those feelings not to become contagious.
What advice would you give someone new to our industry?
Learn the unfun, challenging things that other people don’t want to learn. After all, the more you know, the more you grow! One thing is for certain, all industries change – but advertising and marketing changes more than most.
What personal or professional achievement are you most proud of?
I’m most proud of being dad to two amazing little girls. I get the privilege of having breakfast, lunch and dinner with them every day and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
