http://www.wwaytv3.comA native of Long Island, NY, John is excited to start his career in TV news at WWAY and to be living in the beautiful Cape Fear region.
John knew from a young age that he wanted to be in TV news, and had that in mind when he chose to attend the Pennsylvania State University. In his time at Penn State, John was a part of the student-run CommRadio as a talk show host, play-by-play announcer and producer. He also served as an anchor/reporter and executive producer of the Centre County Report. During his summers, John completed internships at News 12 Long Island and Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia.
After graduating from Penn State with a bachelor's degree in Broadcast Journalism, John packed up and moved down to Wilmington to join the WWAY News team in June 2017 as a Producer.
When he's not putting newscasts together, John loves relaxing at the beach, going to country music concerts and watching sports (especially the New York Mets, Penn State Football or any NASCAR event).
