Favorite Story:
In Nebraska I was able to travel with a group of World War II veterans on a Hero Flight to Washington D.C. It was the most rewarding trip to listen to their stories and report back to our viewers what it was like for these men to see the World War II memorial for the first time.
Favorite part about the Lowcountry:
The Weather! I can't say enough about it being 70 degrees in November. I look forward to meeting more people and going to the beaches.
