Summary

I'm a radio producer at ESPN Louisville, primarily working on the Roundtable with Round Daddy on weekdays from 3-6. My primary responsibilities are behind the scenes, but I do have extensive on-air experience as well. On top of producing shows at ESPN Louisville, I produce Louisville City soccer broadcasts and Bellarmine University basketball broadcasts. I also write, edit, and record sportscenter updates that are played at the top of each hour, as well as reading advertisements for our sponsors.


I have been broadcasting college baseball since 2022 in both play-by-play and color commentary capacities at Bellarmine University, Spalding University, and Centre College. I will also be the play-by-play broadcaster for Holy Cross High School (KY) during the 2024-25 season.
