As Regional Sports Director for the Alexander City Outlook in Alexander City, Alabama, I not only covered all the athletics teams for five high schools in the area but shot many of my own photos and even briefly ran a weekly podcast. This role also included managing a staff of freelance reporters and the sports editor for The Wetumpka Herald to coordinate area coverage and ensure the best possible sports coverage for Tallapoosa Publishers company-wide. This position included coverage of football, boys and girls basketball, baseball, softball, track and field, cross country, fishing and outdoor sports, wrestling, boys and girls soccer, golf, tennis and even youth sports.

First full-time job within the sports journalism industry after college, covering all athletics teams of six high schools for The Wetumpka Herald, part of Tallapoosa Publishers' network of Alabama-based newspapers. After three months working in this position I was promoted to a higher-profile role with another Tallapoosa Publishers newspaper, the Alexander City Outlook. I even spent a month fulfilling both roles while my replacement at this position was found. In addition to an expected output of around 10 articles a week, I shot most of my own photos, including some that landed on the paper's front page.
