Yesterday, I made my on-air debut with WEAU in Eau Claire, WI! While I was a little nervous, I'm SO EXCITED to be bringing the Chippewa Valley and the Coulee Region their forecasts Tuesday through Saturday!

Here's to another year of improvement and getting to do what I love!

How does it feel seeing your first tornado?

Chad Ducommun in Gilman, Wisconsin: “Yes it is the first tornado I saw… I wasn’t even expecting it the sun was shining. It was a very exciting moment. Lol”
