At its best, journalism creates a bridge between icons and the people who admire them. 

Stories told with honesty and clarity draw artists, superstars, and athletes closer to the public, revealing the humanity behind the fame. 

Transparency strips away myth, offering not just achievements but also struggles, doubts, and resilience. In this way, storytelling becomes more than reportage, it becomes a shared experience that allows audiences to connect with those they celebrate on a deeper, more authentic level.

I get to be the middleman between the public and the people they admire. I try and do it with passion and integrity. The athletes and the artists remain the stars of the story.

"I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
