With a diverse background that spans various fields, I have cultivated a unique skill set that enhances my work in journalism and podcasting. My journey began as a Private Investigator, where I honed my analytical skills and developed a keen eye for detail. This experience laid the foundation for my subsequent roles in security and loss prevention, where I ensured safety and integrity in various environments. I spent time working in a bustling casino in Niagara Falls, where I not only managed security operations but also gained invaluable insights into high-pressure situations and customer interactions. This role sharpened my ability to think on my feet and respond effectively to dynamic challenges. In the realm of media, I have had the privilege of serving as a co-host of a podcast series, where I collaborated with talented individuals to create engaging content. Building on that experience, I took the initiative to become the host and creator of my own podcast series, the #CrashAndBurnPodcast. This platform allows me to explore a wide range of topics while connecting with audiences in a meaningful way. Each of these experiences has contributed to my passion for storytelling and my commitment to delivering compelling narratives that resonate with listeners and readers alike.
