Most Memorable Stories:
The day the missing girls were found in Cleveland, May 2013. I had covered the disappearance of Gina DeJesus and Amanda Berry for years. I was sent to MetroHealth Medical Center to cover that they had been possibly found and taken there. That is something I will never forget. When we arrived, I knew it was true by the number of police officers and investigators who were there. It was such an emotional story to cover.
Another memorable story happened when I was in Syracuse, New York. Days before Christmas, a charity that was collecting gifts for needy families was burglarized. I reported the story, and people responded. Our story generated more donations than the organization had collected before the gifts were stolen. They were able to help many more families. It proved to me, once again, that the media has tremendous power to help the community.
