 My dad just mentioned that one day, and it kind of just snowballed from there. I started writing for the school paper, and I did the morning announcements on TV for the school and got various internships. When I was in high school, I was able to get an internship with the Speed Channel here in Charlotte when I was 16. It was more observational, but I got to do some writing and practice things, and I just fell in love with it. You get bit by the bug of live sporting events and broadcasting when the light turns on, really trying to make a kind of look at it as art in a way.
