          Believe it or not, my journey to 2NEWS started way back in the third grade. That's when a weatherman from a local TV station visited my school. After he talked about the excitement of television news, I was immediately hooked.

                  My fascination with the weather started early. Age 5. Thanks to a little girl named Dorothy, a pair of Ruby Red slippers and one nasty twister. Years later I learned the tornado in the movie was just a special effect--but that didn't stop "The Wizard of Oz" from remaining one of my favorites, and weather, one of my passions.
