I unloaded the U-Haul in Orlando in 2008, just in time to cover the Magic’s run to the 2009 NBA Finals.

Since then I've had a press box seat for Super Bowls, BCS Championships, and countless other central Florida sports memories.

I was nominated for an Emmy award in 2012 and enjoyed seeing Orlando City grow from "another minor league franchise" into a core part of the region's sports identity.
