I am the editor of the Matagorda Advocate newspaper, the weekly newspaper in Bay City.

Was born and raised in the Rio Grande Valley and graduated from Saint Edwards University in Austin with a bachelors in Rhetoric and Writing. Also attended the University of Texas-Pan American where I studied journalism.

Before coming to work here, I was a reporter for Valley Newspapers in McAllen, where I did reporting, editing and photography. I was also the copy editor for the Pan American, the university newspaper at UTPA.
